    Author: Aliev SA, Khydyrova NM.
    Journal: Khirurgiia (Mosk); 2010; (2):30-7. PubMed ID: 20360677.
    Abstract:
    Treatment results of 476 patients with acute gastroduodenal ulcer bleeding were analyzed. Men comprised 75% (n=357), women - 25% (n=119). All patients were divided in two groups. Treatment principles of patients of the first group (36.8%; n=175) were based on active conservative treatment. Surgery was performed in 70.3%, postoperative lethality comprised 12.2%, overall mortality was 9.7%. Second group consisted of 301 patients (63.2%). Individual based active surgical treatment was performed, including clinical and endoscopic evaluation of local hemostasis, prognostic criteria of bleeding recurrence, differential approach in time, extent and method of the applied surgery. Operative treatment was used in 81.1% of patients of the second group, postoperative lethality comprised 9.8%, overall mortality was 8.0%. Emergency operations were performed in 43.6% (n=160) of all patients, early elective surgery in 56.4% (n=207). Postoperative lethality comprised 10.6%, overall mortality rate was 8.6%. Therefore, individual based active surgical treatment proved to be preferable. Gastric resection showed to be more advisable then organ-preserving operations, considering emergency ulcer surgery.
