A colostomy irrigation equipment comprises a stoma cap (1) with a rotary valve including a cylindrical housing (27) in which is rotatably mounted a valve cylinder (28). The valve cylinder has two apertures (29, 30) arranged at 90° to one another to align respectively with an inlet from an irrigating water supply pipe (16) and an outlet for a discharge pipe (17) for the waste products from a patient's stoma. The stoma cap is connected by a suction tube (24) to a piston plunger (21) having a one-way inlet valve (22) for creating a vacuum in the stoma cap in order to maintain the stoma cap, by means of the suction, on a patient's body surrounding the stoma. The rotary valve is also connected to a supply of flushing water via a pipe (25) to flush the stoma cap after use.
