Abstract: The present disclosure provides an ostomy appliance (1) comprising inner and outer walls (2, 3) of flexible sheet material. The inner wall (2) comprises a stomal inlet (20) and the outer wall (3) comprises a gas vent (27). A separation wall (4) is between the inner and outer walls (2, 3) forming separate first and second chambers (101, 102) and comprises a liquid and gas permeable separation filter (100). In use the first chamber (101) is arranged to receive stomal output directed into the ostomy appliance (1) via the stomal inlet (20). The separation filter (100) is arranged to communicate, from the stomal output in the first chamber (101), stomal liquid and stomal gas to the second chamber (102). The gas vent (27) is arranged to allow the stomal gas to migrate from the second chamber (102) to outside of the ostomy appliance (1).
