Stoma closure is a surgical procedure that follows a colostomy surgery but at a later period. When a child is unable to pass the stools due to some disease or structural defect in the body, the surgeon may conduct a colostomy procedure, where the colon is connected to a hole or stoma created in the abdomen, so that fecal matter can be safely excreted from the body. Once the child is okay to pass stools through the rectum and anus, the surgeon seals the stoma by a stoma closure procedure.
