Abstract EN
Introduction.
Ileal perforation peritonitis is a frequently encountered surgical emergency in the developing countries.
The choice of a procedure for source control depends on the patient condition as well as the surgeon preference.
Material and Methods.
This was a prospective observational study including 41 patients presenting with perforation peritonitis due to ileal perforation and managed with ileostomy.
Demographic profile and operative findings in terms of number of perforations, site, and size of perforation along with histopathological findings of all the cases were recorded.
Results.
The majority of patients were male.
Pain abdomen and fever were the most common presenting complaints.
Body mass index of the patients was in the range of 15.4–25.3 while comorbidities were present in 43% cases.
Mean duration of preoperative resuscitation was 14.73+13.77 hours.
Operative findings showed that 78% patients had a single perforation; most perforations were 0.6–1 cm in size and within 15 cm proximal to ileocecal junction.
Mesenteric lymphadenopathy was seen in 29.2% patients.
On histopathological examination, nonspecific perforations followed by typhoid and tubercular perforations respectively were the most common.
Conclusion.
Patients with ileal perforations are routinely seen in surgical emergencies and their demography, clinical profile, and intraoperative findings may guide the choice of procedure to be performed.
