In the lower abdomen, the combination of a thick and pendulous abdominal apron, can create a challenging and suboptimal site for a stoma. The anatomical determinant limiting delivery of a stoma to the abdominal skin is the distance of the SMA from the lower border of the pancreas. The aim of this cross\u2010sectional study was to compare the distance between the traditional stoma site, and upper abdominal stoma sites, to both the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) origin and SMA at the inferior border of the pancreas on abdominal computed tomography (CT).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A cross\u2010sectional study at a single academic university hospital of adult patients who underwent abdominal CT in Australia.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Two hundred and thirteen patients were included.
