Analysis of risk factors cotnributing to releak in duodenal ulcer perforation: experience of surgical closure by Graham’s patch

摘要

Abstract: Introduction: Free perforation of peptic ulcer into the general peritoneal cavity is a catastrophic event. Although laparoscopic approach has been successfully used for its management, primary closure of the perforation using an omental patch (Grahm's patch) is the immediate alterative. Objective: This study was planned to analyse risk factors, which could predict releak following Grahm's patch closure. Patients and Methods: This study was carried out for five years from April 2003 to .
