The management of a septic peritonitis open abdomen is a serious problem for clinicians. Open surgery is associated with several complications such as bleeding and perforation of the bowel.
The authors report a case of a 59-years-old female who underwent a sigmoid resection with an latero-terminal (L-T) anastomosis for the perforation of a diverticulum. After a few days the patients developed a new widespread peritonitis. At the emergency re-laparotomy, surgeons found dehiscence of the posterior wall of the anastomosis with fecal contamination. At admission in ICU (Intensive Care Unit) the patient had open abdomen with dehiscence of cutaneous and subcutaneous layers.
Conservative therapy with antibiotic therapy and use of the Vacuum-Assisted Closure (VAC) Therapy with a long term continuous saline infusion led to the resolution of the septic shock and to the wound healing.
对于临床医生而言,处理开放性腹腔的化脓性腹膜炎是一个严重问题。开放性手术会引发多种并发症,如出血和肠穿孔。
作者报告了一例59岁女性患者,该患者因憩室穿孔接受了乙状结肠切除术及端侧吻合术。数天后,患者出现新的广泛性腹膜炎。在急诊再次剖腹手术中,外科医生发现吻合口后壁裂开并有粪便污染。患者入住重症监护病房(ICU)时,腹部开放性伤口的皮肤和皮下层裂开。
采用抗生素保守治疗并使用负压封闭引流(VAC)疗法,长期持续输注生理盐水,使感染性休克得到缓解,伤口得以愈合。
