A urostomy is a stoma that connects to the urinary tract and makes it possible for urine to drain out of the body when regular urination cannot occur. The stoma has no muscle, so it cannot control urine flow, causing a continuous flow. An external pouch collects urine flowing through the stoma.
There are 3 main types of Ostomy procedures. Colostomy. The surgically created opening of the colon (large intestine) which results in a stoma.
