Ileostomy

An ileostomy is a stoma that has been constructed by bringing the end of the small intestine out onto the surface of the skin. Intestinal waste passes out of the ileostomy and is collected in an external pouching system stuck to the skin. Ileostomies are usually sited above the groin on the right hand side of the abdomen. (From the Wikpedia article Ileostomy.)
