Abstract

Aim : The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility, efficacy and safety of laparoscopic repair for perforated duodenal ulcer.
Methods : One hundred and sixty patients were treated by coelioscopic procedure for a perforated duodenal ulcer. The procedure consists on a suture of perforated ulcer associated with a peritoneal lavage. A medical treatment of Helicobacter pylori associated with an inhibitor of the protons pomp was conducted.
Results : The coelioscopic procedure permitted to confirm the diagnostic of perforated duodenal ulcer in all cases.A simple suture of the ulcer was done in 155 cases. The conversion was compulsory in 5 cases, because of difficulties of the peritoneal lavage in 2 cases, a bleeding associated with perforation of the ulcer in one case and associated stenosis in 2 cases.Mean duration was 90 min (extremes 50 – 120 min). Complications occur in 3,1 %. They were post – operative peritonitis in 3 cases and duodenal fistulae in 2 cases.All patients were reviewed at 16 months. A recurrence, either clinical or endoscopic occurs in 4 cases because of no adhesion to medical treatment.
Conclusion : Coelioscopic treatment of perforated duodenal ulcer is a safe and efficacy method. It permits to avoid potential septic and parietal complications of laparotomy.The actual efficacy of medical treatment mustn’t allow place to the radical treatment of ulcerous illness.
