Comparison of Clinical Outcome of Laparoscopic with Open Repair Surgery for Duodenal Ulcer Perforation

A Comparative Study of Laparoscopic vs Open Surgery for the Management of Duodenal Ulcer Perforation

Approximately, 10 to 20% of patients with peptic ulcer suffer a perforation of stomach or duodenum in which chemical peritonitis develop initially from gastric and duodenal secretion but in a few hours bacterial contamination superimpose the disease. The disease could be life-threatening, early diagnosis and treatment is extremely important. The mortality will increase up if perforation exists ...

Laparoscopic Primary Repair with Omentopexy for Duodenal Ulcer Perforation: A Single Institution Experience of 21 Cases

PURPOSE Despite the great advances in laparoscopic techniques, most active general surgeons do not apply laparoscopic surgery in the treatment of duodenal ulcer perforation when facing a real-life emergency. Therefore, our study was designed to evaluate the feasibility of laparoscopic surgery in duodenal ulcer perforation, and provide a step-by-step protocol with tips and recommendations for le...

Laparoscopic repair of perforated peptic duodenal ulcer.

Although prevalence of peptic ulcer is decreasing, the number of peptic ulcer perforations appears to be unchanged. This complication of peptic ulcer is traditionally surgically treated. In recent years, a number of papers have been published where the authors managed perforated duodenal peptic ulcer in selected patients using laparoscopic approach. Laparoscopic treatment of perforated duodenal...

Laparoscopic repair of perforated duodenal ulcer.

Laparoscopic closure of an acutely perforated duodenal ulcer is an alternative procedure to open surgery. With proper training and experience this procedure might overtake laparotomy and simple closure thereby reducing the post operative morbidity in terms of reduced wound pain, short hospital stay, likely reduced wound sepsis and hernia occurrence and post operative chest complications. We rep...
