  • Title: [Strategy of the surgical treatment of postoperative complications in patients with obstructive ileus of the colon of tumorous etiology].
    Author: Aliev SA.
    Journal: Vestn Khir Im I I Grek; 1999; 158(3):66-70. PubMed ID: 10481890.
    Abstract:
    Under analysis were postoperative intraperitoneal complications and results of relaparotomies in 33 patients (13 women and 20 men) aged from 33 to 76 years with obturative ileus caused by stenosing cancer of different portions of the colon. High frequency of peritonitis in the general picture of postoperative complications was due to incompetent sutures of the colonic anastomoses applied during emergency and urgent operations in patients with sub- and decompensated forms of intestinal obstruction. The best variant of completion of radical operations in emergency surgery in this category of patients is the formation of a single- or double-trunk colostomy without a primary reestablishment of the continuity of the intestinal tube especially when stenosing cancer is localized in the left part of the colon.
