Stomal prolapse is a common but potentially disabling complication of digestive stomas. It is characterized by excessive protrusion of the intestinal mucosa through the stomal orifice, often due to weakened fixation structures, increased intra-abdominal pressure, or technical errors during the initial creation of the stoma. This complication may remain asymptomatic or be associated with clinical manifestations such as pain, edema, altered bowel function, and in more severe cases, strangulation or bowel obstruction. We report here the case of a patient with a stomal prolapse complicated by intestinal obstruction, requiring emergency surgical management.
