Persistent sepsis from an oesophageal perforation has a near 100% mortality. We describe our experience with early oesophageal diversion and exclusion for patients in-extremis.
A retrospective review of oesophageal perforations was performed between 2000 and 2007. There were five cases Boerhaaves and one case of iatrogenic perforation that required oesophageal diversion and exclusion. 4 males, 2 females with a mean age of 67.6 (58-72) years.
The primary procedure was performed within 24h in four patients; the other two were after 3 and 10 days. The intensive care unit (ITU) stay was a median of 25 days. Mortality rate was 50%. Median length of stay for the survivors was 60 days. Three patients underwent a successful colonic interposition in our unit after 6 months.
Exclusion and diversion procedures are required in very rare circumstances. In conditions of persistent leak and continuing sepsis or those patients not fit to undergo a major procedure they could be lifesaving if performed early. As it is a relatively easy and quick procedure it should be considered early as a 2nd line management option.
食管穿孔导致的持续性脓毒症死亡率接近100%。我们描述了我们对危重症患者进行早期食管转流和旷置术的经验。
对2000年至2007年间的食管穿孔病例进行回顾性研究。有5例博赫哈夫斯综合征病例和1例医源性穿孔病例需要进行食管转流和旷置术。4例男性,2例女性,平均年龄67.6(58 - 72)岁。
4例患者在24小时内进行了初次手术;另外2例分别在3天和10天后进行。重症监护病房(ITU)住院时间中位数为25天。死亡率为50%。幸存者的住院时间中位数为60天。3例患者在6个月后在我们科室成功进行了结肠间置术。
在非常罕见的情况下需要进行旷置和转流手术。在持续渗漏和持续脓毒症的情况下,或者对于那些不适合进行大型手术的患者,如果早期进行,这些手术可能挽救生命。由于这是一个相对简单快捷的手术,应尽早将其作为二线治疗选择考虑。
