the only online article i could find on colostomies, and it only briefly mentions a reversal is this one from rn magazine:
http://rnweb.com/rnweb/article/articledetail.jsp?id=172929 - meeting the needs of your ostomy patient
i think your best route is to enlist the help of a medical librarian to help you.
thank you sooo mcuh. the sites were very hrlpfull
