Abstract

The effect of selective perioperative intestinal decontamination in patients with acute sigmoid diverticulitis complicated by covered perforation on the number of postoperative complications was described. A prospective and partially retrospective study of the results of complex treatment of 196 patients with acute diverticulitis localized in the sigmoid colon, complicated by covered perforation, divided into group А – 66 patients with perioperative selective intestinal decontamination and group B – 130 patients without decontamination. Rectal resection by open, laparoscopic and robot-assisted methods with the formation of primary colorectal anastomoses was performed in all cases. Of the 196 patients included in our study, 122 (62,2 %) underwent surgery without complications. Abdominal postoperative complications directly caused by surgical interventions and related, according to the classification of Сlavien-Dindo surgical complications (C-D) to grades I, IIIb and IV, were noted in 9 (13,6 %) patients of group A and 36 (27,6 %) patients of group B, and extraabdominal (C-D I, IV), which included: pneumonia, acute renal failure, pyelonephritis, urosepsis, postoperative delirium and transient ischemic attack – in 8 (12,1 %) and 21 (16,1 %) patients of the corresponding groups. In group A, there was a significantly lower number of general abdominal and wound complications, as well as the total number of all postoperative complications (p = 0,03, p = 0,04 and p = 0,0111 respectively). There were no fatalities. The used scheme of oral antibiotic therapy, along with orthograde intestinal sanitation with osmolar solutions, significantly reduced the frequency of surgical and non-surgical complications.
