Intestinal stoma formation is a lifesaving procedure in neonates with severe intestinal pathology. This study analyzed early and late stoma-related complications in 218 infants who underwent colostomy or ileostomy at the Republican Center of Pediatric Minimally Invasive and Endoscopic Surgery between 2020 and 2025. Stoma-related complications were observed in 62% of cases, including early complications in 38% and late complications in 24%. Careful surgical technique, adequate postoperative care, and parental education were identified as key factors in reducing complication rates and improving clinical outcomes.
