Abstract
A case of parastomal haemorrhage around an ileal conduit is presented and the literature reviewed. Simple methods of treatment, such as good stoma care, vitamin K, direct pressure and ligation of individual bleeding points, are effective in the short term, and persistence with these methods is advocated rather than major surgery.
