Abstract


Background:Laparoscopic surgery has become the gold standard for many procedures owing to its advantages such as a shorter post-operative stay, a faster recovery and less postoperative pain. However, choosing laparoscopic approach in an emergency situationsuch as in the management of a perforated duodenal peptic ulcer is still debated because of the absence of significant benefits.
This study aimed to assess the management of perforated duodenal peptic ulcer treated by suture.

Methods: It’s a retrospective study enrolling 81 patients operated on for duodenal perforated peptic ulcer between June 1st, 2012 and December 31st, 2016 who underwent surgery in the surgical department B of Charles Nicolle's Hospital.

Results: Our retrospective study showed that laparoscopic approach had shorter post-operative duration (3 [1-5] versus 4 [1-16] days, respectively, p< 0.001), shorter mortality rate (3% versus 19%, p=0.032) and more uneventful post-operative course (97% versus 74%, p=0.004) comparing to the open approach. Patients who were not admitted in the intensive care unit during the first 48 hours had 9.901 more chance to be operated by laparoscopic approach. Patients who were operated on by a senior had 3.240 times more chance to be operated by laparoscopic approach. There was no predictive variable for conversion. Mortality rate was 11%. Age was the only predictive independent factor of mortality with a cut-off point of 47 years.

Conclusions: Laparoscopic approach is routinely practised in the perforated duodenal ulcer. In our study, we showed that laparoscopic approach had less post-operative complications, a lower rate of mortality and a shorter post-operative duration comparing to the open approach. The main limitation of our study was non-randomization and lack of laparoscopic expertise. The decision for either open or laparoscopic approach was then dependent on senior surgeon’s availability.
