Continent Ileostomy With An Internal Pouch

The end of the small intestine is folded into a reservoir inside the abdomen, and a one-way valve is built where it reaches the skin. Waste collects in the internal pouch and is emptied several times a day by passing a small tube through the opening, so no external bag is worn.
