Necrosis is the death of cells in your body tissues. When the cells in your tissues die, it can affect many different areas of your body, including your bones, skin, and organs. Some complications of necrosis include leakage and skin irritations, high output resulting in fluid and electrolyte imbalances, or stoma necrosis; late complications include parastomal hernia, stoma prolapse, and stoma stenosis. In the case of avascular necrosis (AVN), when the bone does not get enough oxygen, the bone tissue can die. When there is not enough blood reaching the bone, the joint can narrow and the bone can collapse.
