Not all surgeons make the same size.  They will need to compare to your original size.

RNY on 12/20/05 with

my RNY was in 2005. My pouch was 4 cm long and as of an EDG a week ago, it's still 4cm long.   My "stoma" was originally 10mm in diameter, and it's now 14 mm.   
You "stoma" is 15mm in diameter and most surgeons make them between 10-12mm.   Yours like mine is a bit larger.  My surgeon just told me 2 hours ago, that my stoma is fine.  If it was at 18mm or more, then that would be an issue.
