Surgery For Perforation (All types)

Surgery For Perforation (All types)

Surgery is usually performed to repair a GI perforation, particularly if it is in the bowel. ... This surgery allows the contents of your intestines to empty into a bag, through a stoma, a hole created in your abdomen. The colostomy or ileostomy may be temporary, allowing the rest of your intestines to heal.

What is gastrointestinal perforation?

Gastrointestinal perforation (GP) occurs when a hole forms all the way through the stomach, large bowel, or small intestine. It can be due to a number of different diseases, including appendicitis and diverticulitis. It can also be the result of trauma, such as a knife wound or gunshot wound. A perforation may also occur in the gallbladder. This can have symptoms that are similar to the symptoms of a gastrointestinal perforation.

A hole in your gastrointestinal system or gallbladder can lead to peritonitis. Peritonitis is inflammation of the membrane that lines the abdominal cavity.

It occurs when any of the following enters the abdominal cavity:

  • bacteria
  • bile
  • stomach acid
  • partially digested food
  • stool

GP is a medical emergency that requires immediate medical care. The condition is life-threatening. Chances of recovery improve with early diagnosis and treatment.

This condition is also known as intestinal perforation or perforation of the intestines.

What is Appendix?

The appendix is a narrow, small, finger-shaped portion of the large intestine that is generally situated near junction of small and large intestine (Cecum) on lower right side of the abdomen.

Appendicitis

Appendicitis is a sudden inflammation of the appendix. Although the appendix does not seem to serve any purpose, it can become diseased and, if untreated, can burst, causing infection and could be even fatal.
