The object of this study is to report a rare case of explosion during laparotomy where diathermy ignited intraperitoneal gas from a spontaneous stomach perforation. Fortunately, the patient survived but the surgeon experienced a finger burn. A literature review demonstrates other examples of intraoperative explosion where gastrointestinal gases were the fuel source. Lessons learned from these cases provide recommendations to prevent this potentially lethal event from occurring.
本研究的目的是报告一例罕见的剖腹手术中爆炸病例，术中电灼引发了因胃自发性穿孔产生的腹腔内气体燃烧。幸运的是，患者存活下来，但外科医生手指被烧伤。文献综述显示了其他以胃肠道气体为燃料源的术中爆炸案例。从这些案例中吸取的教训为预防这一潜在致命事件的发生提供了建议。
