Routine versus selective upper gastrointestinal contrast series after omental patch repair for gastric or duodenal perforation

Abstract: Rates of leak detection, reoperation, and death in patients with GP or DP repaired with omental patch utilizing an UGI study were not statistically significant. An increased length of stay was observed within the UGI group. There was no advantage demonstrated between a selective versus routine UGI; therefore, the use of selective UGI should be based upon clinical indications.

“…Also, it is reported ADSCs derived from subcutaneous adipose tissue can be regenerated and used by dermatology and in plastic surgery 17,18 . However, abdominal surgeons generally use omentum (visceral adipose tissue) for the repair of gastrointestinal perforations 19,20 . The authors have also experienced that these perforative points were completely replaced with regenerated tissues by an omental patch, thus digestive surgeons often have the impression that omentum has superior self-renewal ability.…”

“…The median hospital length of stay for acute colonic perforation patients who received rapid source control laparotomy was 20 days (21). The length of stay for patient who received omental patch repair for gastric or duodenal perforation was 15.5 days (22). In our study, most patients were hospitalized within 20 days, although many patients were hospitalized for more than a month.…”
