Abstract
ABSTRACT Introduction: Hollow viscus perforation is one of the most common surgical emergencies. The descriptive study was conducted from May 2022 to June 2024 regarding the incidence, etiology, and postoperative surgical complication in operated cases of hollow viscus perforation. Before the discovery of PPI and H-pylori regimen peptic ulcer disease was the most common cause of hollow viscus perforation. Aim: 1) To study the incidence of gastrointestinal perforation peritonitis in adults in rural India. 2) To study the etiology of perforation peritonitis in these patients. 3) To study post-operative complications and their management. Materials and methods: The present study was carried out in the Department of General Surgery at a tertiary care teaching hospital. This is a prospective descriptive study. The present study was conducted from May 2022 to June 2024. 50 patients with gastrointestinal perforation peritonitis undergoing surgical intervention were studied During the study period. Patients who met inclusion criteria were requested to sign a written informed consent form before being enrolled in the study. Inclusion criteria 1) All patients of age 18 years and above irrespective of sex, presenting with gastrointestinal perforation peritonitis and undergoing exploratory laparotomy included in this study. Exclusion criteria 1) Patients below 18 years of age. 2) Patients with primary peritonitis/spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, postoperative peritonitis due to anastomotic leakage, peritonitis following ingestion of corrosive poison, and peritonitis following traumatic and iatrogenic peroration will be excluded from this study. 3) Patients not undergoing exploratory laparotomy. Results: 1) The mean age of perforation peritonitis is 47.95. 2) Amongst all patients 60% of patients have perforation peritonitis due to peptic ulcer disease and 22% of patients due to appendicular perforations. 3) Overall, 36% of patients (18 patients) had post-operative complications. Amongst 18 patients 9 patients had surgical site infections and 1 patient had acute renal failure. Conclusions: 1) The most common age group of incidences for perforation peritonitis is 51- 60 years and the least common is above 70 years 2) The most common cause of perforation peritonitis is peptic ulcer disease followed by appendicular perforation while the least common is due to tuberculosis of the intestine in this age group. 3) The most common postoperative complication is surgical site infection and the least common is acute renal failure.
