Summary
This study will help determine wether mechanical bowel preparation before a colostomy closure
is necessary in pediatric population, in order to avoid surgery related complications
(surgical site infection and anastomosis leakage).
Half of the population will go through the mechanical bowel prep before colostomy closure and
the other half won´t. Complications rate will be compared among both groups.
