    Author: Bäumer F.
    Journal: Zentralbl Chir; 1987; 112(8):485-90. PubMed ID: 3617980.
    Abstract:
    A retrospective study was conducted into 136 patients who had received surgical treatment for perforated gastroduodenal ulcers, with the view to establishing postoperative lethality and morbidity (comparing simple suturing with definitive ulcer surgery). Factors of relevance to prognosis were taken into consideration, including age of patients, number of concomitant diseases, time from perforation to surgery, presence of peritonitis, ulcer location, and length of ulcer history.
