Abstract
Background: This study aims to evaluate the retrospective results of peptic ulcer perforation (PUP) treatment and assess the effectiveness and safety of early postoperative endoscopy.
Methods: Patients who underwent PUP surgery at Mersin University Hospital between 2010 and 2024 were analyzed. Demographic data, treatment methods, clinical outcomes, and early postoperative (6-8 wk) endoscopy results were evaluated for healing, complications, and recurrence. The correlation between treatment approach and clinical outcomes was statistically analyzed.
Results: A total of 176 patients underwent PUP surgery. A total of 70.4% (124) of the citizens are male. A total of 29.6% (52) of the patients are female. The average age was 61.2 years. Surgical interventions were performed by open surgery in 77.3% (136) and by laparoscopic method in 22.7% (40). Omental patching was performed in 93.8% (165) of the patients, simple closure was performed in 4.5% (8), and gastric resection was performed in 1.7% (3 patients). Peroperative biopsy was taken from all patients. In the biopsy results, Helicobacter pylori -positive ulcer was detected in 88.3% (156) of the patients, chronic inflammation was detected in 10.2% (18), and malignancy was detected in 1.1% (2). All patients were recommended a complete gastrointestinal endoscopy within 6 to 8 weeks after surgery. However, endoscopy was not performed in 54.6% of the patients (96 patients). In endoscopic evaluation, 15.6% (15) ulcers, 81.3% (78) normal findings, and 3.1% (3) malignancies were detected.
Conclusions: PUP can be effectively treated with laparatomy/laparoscopy, and omental patch repairment. Postoperative upper gastrointestinal endoscopy should be performed with an initial biopsy to avoid missing an underlying malignancy.
