Disease relevance of Cecostomy

Beclomethasone dipropionate administration via cecostomy in ulcerative colitis [1].
All patients underwent either an appendicostomy or cecostomy, and were injected with dexamethasone via an artificial fistula twice a day [2].

High impact information on Cecostomy

Rats were randomized to receive for 12 d either saline (S) or the enteral solution (E) through a cecostomy to meet 30% of energy requirement; the rest (70%) was provided by parenteral nutrition [3].
A cecostomy tube drained AC and pill fragments [4].

Associations of Cecostomy with chemical compounds

From a tube cecostomy, beclomethasone dipropionate solution was administered continuously throughout the day [1].
