When they remove the colon due to cancer etc, they give you a bag on the stomach where they have opened a hole and connected the duodenum to. Since the feces doesn't become hard until it reaches the colon it's not common to attach the duodenum to the rectum since it will all be loose, diarrhea. That is why a bag on the belly is better. However can it leak inside occasionally. If it's a lot you should see the doctor again but sometimes a little can seep out. It's annoying and you might have to wear protection like a small diaper for awhile.
