The need for definitive therapy in the management of perforated gastric ulcers Review of 202 cases Hodnett RM; Gonzalez F; Lee WC; Nance FC; Deboisblanc RAnn Surg 1989[Jan]; 209 (1): 36-9A retrospective study of 202 patients who presented to three Louisiana hospitals with perforated gastric ulcers was performed. Patients were treated surgically, medically, or were not treated. Only those patients with gastric ulcers were included in the study, not those with "channel ulcers" or peptic ulcers. The mortality rate of the 185 patients who were treated with operation was 18%. Of those patients treated nonoperatively, the mortality was 95% (one survivor). There was a definite difference in mortality among those patients treated with definitive operative procedures (11.3%) versus those patients treated with nondefinitive surgery (22.9%). This difference was consistent even in the presence of purulent exudate in the abdominal cavity and among those patients presenting in shock. The mortality among those patients who presented with a initial blood pressure of 90 mmHg or less were defined as being in shock, and the mortality in this subgroup was 52.8%. The mortality among those patients who had purulent fluid within the abdominal cavity was about the same, regardless of type of surgical procedure. The patients who underwent nondefinitive procedures required subsequent operative treatment in 25.7% of cases. Also noted was the lack of correlation between symptoms of ulcer disease and perforation. Those patients treated with definitive surgery (57%) and those treated with nondefinitive surgery (41%) reported no symptoms consistent with ulcer disease before operation.|Adolescent[MESH]|Adult[MESH]|Aged[MESH]|Aged, 80 and over[MESH]|Child[MESH]|Child, Preschool[MESH]|Diagnosis, Differential[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Infant[MESH]|Infant, Newborn[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Methods[MESH]|Middle Aged[MESH]|Peptic Ulcer Perforation/complications/mortality/pathology/*surgery/therapy[MESH]|Pneumoperitoneum/etiology[MESH]|Reoperation[MESH]|Retrospective Studies[MESH]|Stomach Ulcer/complications/mortality/pathology/*surgery/therapy[MESH] |
