Management of perforated peptic ulcer in a district general hospital

Abstract: Both laparoscopic and open repair are equally safe in the management of PPU. Our findings support the view that this procedure can be successfully used as a training operation.

“…Included studies were published between 1996 and 2019. Five were RCTs [14][15][16][17][18] , three were prospective cohort studies [19][20][21] , and the other 15 studies used retrospective cohort or case-control designs [22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36] ( Table 1). All compared outcomes of laparoscopic versus open peptic ulcer repair.…”

“…Specialist society guidelines suggest that a laparoscopic approach is warranted in selected patients. Laparoscopic repair of PPU has also been done by trainee surgeons, with acceptable results, probably because of the increased exposure to laparoscopy by current young surgical trainees. Guidelines on which patients with PPU are best suited to a laparoscopic approach have not yet been established, but shock on admission (blood pressure below 90 mmHg), delayed presentation (over 24 h) after perforation, age over 70 years, ASA fitness grade III–IV and a high Boey score should be considered adverse risk factors, and should guide towards laparotomy rather than laparoscopy.…”
