Treatments used to close these perforations range from surgery to endoscopic therapy. Nowadays,with the development of new devices and techniques,endoscopic therapy is becoming more popular. However,there are different indications and clinical efficacies between different methods,because of the diverse properties of endoscopic devices and techniques. Successful management also depends on other factors,such as the precise location of the perforation,its size and the length of time between the occurrence and diagnosis. In this study,we performed a comprehensive review of various devices and intro-duced the different techniques that are considered effective to treat gastrointestinal perforations. In addition,we focused on the different methods used to achieve successful closure,based on the literature and our clinical experiences.展开更多

Methods: It is a cross sectional study covering the period from 2010 to 2012. Sampling was comprehensive, including all the patients operated for incisional hernias during this period. Results: Fifty-four patients were included. Their average age was 22.3 years. There were 35 (64.8%) males and 19 (35.2%) female patients. We counted 28 large-size incisional hernias, 14 medium-size incisional hernias and 12 incisional hernias of small size. The average time from the first surgery to the diagnosis of incisional hernias was 8 months. Generalized acute peritonitis (44.4%) and acute intestinal obstructions (22.2%) were the main indications of initial surgical interventions. Vertical midline incisions have been involved in 37 cases (68.5%). Therapeutically, two surgical techniques have been used: open suture repair and open mesh repair. Forty-two patients (77.8%) were treated by open suture repair. Twelve patients (22.2%) benefited from open mesh repair. Post-operative complications were noted in 2 patients. Nine patients (16.7%) presented a recurrence after 12 months. Conclusion: In the rural area of Burkina Faso, incisional hernias occur in young patients. Emergencies with abdominal Infections are the main operative indications. Prostheses are relatively high cost and less accessible. The recidivism rate is high.展开更多
