We therefore evaluated the creation of an unopened exteriorized (covering) ileal loop without ostomy as a simple, feasible alternative. In our prospective interventional study, 26 patients undergoing emergency surgery for ileal perforation or distal intestinal obstruction underwent this procedure, with an option for bedside conversion to ileostomy if required. Stoma conversion was required in only four patients, while the remainder avoided ileostomy and underwent loop repositioning without complication. This technique appears simple and safe, avoids stoma-related morbidity, and eliminates the need for a second surgery in the majority of patients.</p>","PeriodicalId":49415,"journal":{"name":"Tropical Doctor","volume":" ","pages":"494755261443667"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2026-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147787343","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This retrospective study was performed to examine the epidemiological dynamics on all clinically suspected Chikungunya cases tested by ELISA for anti-CHIK virus IgM antibodies from 2010 to 2020 at a tertiary care hospital in Delhi. Archived data of suspected patients screened for CHIKV IgM by ELISA were retrieved for the period 2010-2020. Epidemiological data was used in the study. GIS mapping was done for the positive cases. Among the 445 samples tested, 57.3% were positive with the greatest number of cases (76.5%) in 2016 and significantly higher number of cases in monsoon & post-monsoon periods (<i>p</i> < 0.005). Seropositivity was highest in patients aged 45-54 years (69.6%); however, the disease did not show predilection for a specific gender. GIS mapping showed the burden of Chikungunya infection was concentrated in a 5-10 km radius from the study site with significant presence of cross-border cases.
