Abstract
A coupling for an ostomy bag is described. The coupling includes a pair of cylindrical elements which each have a headed pin attachment means mounted on a respective flange. An interdigitation of pins and heads secures the cylindrical elements to one another. One of the coupling elements is adhesively attached to a wearer, and the other coupling element has an ostomy bag attached to it. Thus, an ostomy bag may be readily and securely attached to a user through the use of the present invention.
