  • Title: [Prediction of postoperative commissural complications in urgent abdominal surgery in children].
    Author: Shamsiev AM, Kobilov EE.
    Journal: Khirurgiia (Mosk); 2006; (2):23-5. PubMed ID: 16715980.
    Abstract:
    Acetyl phenotype was examined in 166 patients with appedicular peritonitis and in 96 patients with acute adhesive intestinal obstruction. The age of the patients ranged from 5 months to 14 years. It was revealed that postoperative adhesive complications developed mostly in patients with fast acetylation (more than 76%). It is demonstrated that acetyl phenotype may be used as a screening-test for prediction of the risk of postsoperative adhesive complications and preventive treatment.
