Images depicting loop colostomy can be seen below. Construction of loop colostomy.
Laparoscopic approach to colostomy construction has been described, starting in the early 1990s,[1, 2] and modifications of the initially described technique have been described. The laparoscopic approach has certain advantages over the open approach that have been well described in laparoscopic surgery. The construction of the stoma is performed as described above. 1. A supraumbilical 5 mm trochar site is inserted under direct vision; through that trochar site, the authors establish pneumoperitoneum. The authors proceed with 2 more 5 mm trochar sites, one supraumbilical and one on the right lower quadrant, if a loop sigmoid colostomy is planned. The authors almost never perform transverse loop colostomies. 2. The bowel is mobilized with the goal of having adequate length to reach (without tension) the abdominal wall at site of the premarked stoma. 3. Advantages include minimized possible post operative ileus. Oral intake starts on postoperative day 1. 4. Smaller incisions, which are often distant from the stoma site, minimizing wound complications and also helping with fitting of ostomy appliances.

The advantages of trephine colostomy over open colostomy include the following:
It can be performed under local anesthesia. It has shorter operative times. It requires decreased use of narcotic pain medications postoperatively.
Increased problems with retraction of the stoma probably due to inadequate mobilization of the mesentery. Limited visualization, especially in patients with extensive adhesions
Summary
Overall the surgical techniques available for constructing a loop colostomy have evolved greatly over the last decade. It is important to emphasize although a relatively simple procedure it is considered temporary with the goal to be reversed at a later date.
