One hundred and five defunctioning loop colostomies were performed using a subcutaneous bridge support. Two complications were observed: a peristomal abscess and a bridge migration into the peritoneal cavity. This technique facilitates the fitting of stoma appliances. Glass bridge support can be removed under local anesthesia. This technique can be recommended in view of the good results.
