INTRODUCTION Timely diagnosis of the gastroduodenal perforation usually allows primary repair or resection. Treatment of a large gastric perforation is more difficult than the common duodenal ulcer perforation by plugging and usually requires agastric resection. On the other hand, gastric resection fora hemodynamically compromised patient in sepsis hasa high rate of anastomotic failure and mort...

Introduction: Isolated duodenal injuries are rare in blunt abdominal trauma. These present a significant challenge for management because of the associated and its difficult anatomical accessibility.
 Case presentation: A 20years male presented to Emergency department following bike accident sustaining injury over face, chest abdomen, 6hours after incident. His vitals were unstable so he w...

Introduction. Esophageal perforation is a relatively uncommon and lethal disease usually resulting from endoscopic procedures. Delay in the diagnosis and treatment occurs in more than 50% of cases, leading to a mortality rate of 40% to 60%, but this rate decreases is 10%-25% if treatment is carried out within 24 hours of perforation. Case Presentation. To analyze the characteristics, etiology, ...

Gut perforations during ERCP and stenting or due to migration of stents are very rare complications, with an incidence of well below 2%. Moreover, direct duodenoscope-induced lateral or medial duodenal wall perforation is much less common, accounting for 0.1% of patients who undergo ERCP, but tends to be large and further away from the ampulla. Duodenal perforations from the superior duodenal a...

Background: Intestinal perforation is a surgical emergency often, encountered. Usually, coelotomy performed to manage intestinal perforation. It has been the gold standard approach deal with for past decades in conjunction various procedures. Post laparotomy wound related complications have biggest challenge general surgeons till date, so much as adding up morbidity, severe burst abdomen. Lapar...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate the in vitro sealing ability of three repair materials. Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA; Group A), calcium phosphate cement (CPC; Group B), and light cured glass ionomer cement (GIC; Group C) when used to repair the perforation created in the pulpal floor of fifty extracted human permanent molars. MATERIALS AND METHODS Preparation of access...

BACKGROUND The risk factors for perforation from colorectal endoscopy have been well studied, but little is known about clinical outcomes beyond the immediate event. OBJECTIVE To evaluate short- and long-term outcomes of iatrogenic colorectal perforation following colorectal endoscopy. DESIGN Retrospective review over 16 years at a single tertiary care institution. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES T...

RATIONALE Gastroscopymay not only allow identification of gastric injury, but may also facilitate prompt repair. PATIENT CONCERNS A 39-year-old male patient was admitted 3 hours after abdominal injury caused by penetration of a screwdriver. Physical examination and computed tomography showed no evidence of gastric injury. However, 3000 mL fresh blood was vomited during the subsequent observat...

Traumatic perforation of the cervical esophagus due to blunt trauma is a very rare condition which continues to be associated with significant mortality rates. The symptoms and signs of this injury are often masked by or ascribed to more common blunt thoracic injuries. This paper presents a case of cervical esophageal perforation secondary to blunt trauma resulting from a car accident. The inju...
