WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair is slated to undergo surgery next week.
According to a recent report by Ryan Satin of Pro Wrestling Sheet, Flair will not be undergoing surgery to remove a colonoscopy bag despite that rumor going around but instead, he will undergo an ileostomy procedure.
His fiancé, Wendy Barlow, told Satin that the procedure has to be done after his health scare last summer. The wrestling legend is scheduled for surgery on July 9th with pre-op on July 6th.
According to the American Cancer Association, an ileostomy is defined as an opening in the belly (abdominal wall) that is made during surgery and that the lowest part of the small intestine is brought through this opening to form a stoma.
Thus, a colonoscopy bag applies to the large intestine and not the small intestine. The WWE Hall of Famer hopes to reverse the stoma so he’ll no longer be forced to drain the pouch.
We wish Flair a successful surgery and speedy recovery.
