Objectives: The aim of this study is to evaluate risk factors for stomal recurrence and to state and emphasize the importance of these factors.
Patients And Methods: This study was carried out retrospectively on 119 patients (116 males, 3 females; mean age 56.8 years; range 31 to 86 years) with larynx cancer who underwent total laryngectomy. All patients were examined for T-stage and location of primary tumor, tracheotomy (preoperative or postoperative) opening time, modality of applied treatment, presence of pharyngeal stoma fistula and presence of cervical lymph node metastasis in the postoperative period.
Results: Five patients (4.2%) out of 119 had stomal recurrence. Development period of stomal recurrence after laryngectomy was found to be between six months and three years (mean: 16.6 months).
Conclusion: The treatment of this fatal complication is very difficult, and it has a poor prognostic nature. As a result, presence of subglottic involvement and advanced tumors in our cases are considered as main risk factors.

Introduction: Stenosis is a serious complication associated with stomas.

Objective: To identify risk factors for stenosis and compare management strategies for stenosis etiology and to examine the efficacy of each approach. Patients with classic bladder exstrophy (CBE), a rare genitourinary malformation, may require construction of a continent urinary stoma (CUS) if incontinence persists. Stomal stenosis is a challenging complication as it is common, progressive, and recurrent.
