MANAGEMENT OF BOWEL OBSTRUCTIONS – 3 YEARS’ EXPERIENCE OF A GENERAL SURGERY DEPARTMENT
Abstract:
The bowel obstruction represents a challenge for the surgeon, both from the point of view of
finding the obstructive mechanism and from the point of view of establishing the therapeutic plan. We
conducted a 3-year study of patients diagnosed and operated for bowel obstruction in the General
Surgery Department of the “Bagdasar-Arseni” Clinical Emergency Hospital from Bucharest. There
were analyzed a number of general parameters (age, gender, days of hospitalization), clinical
manifestations at presentation, preoperative and postoperative biological parameters, medical and
surgical history, bowel obstruction mechanism, type of performed surgical procedure, as well as
postoperative outcome and occurred complications.
