Completed
Conditions
The Focus of Study is to Elucidate Which Are the Factors Requiring the Duodenostomy and Which Postoperative Course is for These Patients
Registration Number
NCT05359029
Lead Sponsor
University of Foggia
Brief Summary

In this study the investigators focused on duodenal perforations, requiring a tube duodenostomy and have analyzed the main features, that have influenced the surgical choices. Five patients were enrolled. Most of duodenal perforations can successfully be managed by simple repair, while complicated procedures are needed for complex injuries. Tube duodenostomy is a damage control procedure, for large duodenal perforations when further repair techniques are not recommended due to the duodenal damage, hemodynamic instability of the patient or the absence of surgical expertise for complex reconstruction.
