“…Exteriorization of the repaired segment so the suture line can be directly observed for leakage is another technique that has been utilized in the past. One randomized [70], one prospective [73], and eleven retrospective [35, 36, 38, 40, 41, 41] studies have evaluated this technique in 441 patients (Table 4). Suture line failure occurred in 31% and intraabdominal abscess occurred in 4%.…”

“…A number of risk factors have been associated with increased morbidity and mortality after colon injury: hypotension or shock, interval of injury to operation, amount of fecal contamination, associated organ injury, number of transfusions, co‐morbid disease. Although some of these factors may help stratify the overall risk, none has been found to increase the risk of suture line failure when PR is used for nondestructive colon injuries [29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 55, 76]. Regarding destructive injuries, the risk factors for suture line failure remain controversial, with conflicting reports.…”
