description BACKGROUND: The Hartmann procedure is currently recognized as a common, safe, and feasible surgical procedure. However, its reversal rate is low, and the optimal timing for Hartmann reversal surgery is controversial. CASE SUMMARY: A 65-year-old man came to our hospital with a complaint of an intestinal fistula next to the stoma. The patient had undergone a Hartmann procedure 13 years prior. We performed colonoscopy, computed tomography, and other diagnostics before successfully reversing the stoma. CONCLUSION: Although the optimal time for Hartmann procedure reversal is controversial, time may ultimately not be a factor in the success of reversal.
