[Perforating injuries of the colon: primary surgery in their management (author's transl)]. 1979

R G Daou

Thirty four penetrating wounds of the colon in 23 patients were treated by primary surgery. Location of the injuries on the colon, associated injuries and the nature of the missile had not affected the good quality of the results. These are encouraging an attitude towards primary surgery in the management of the colon injuries. Colostomies are still indicated for patients seen lately with severe peritoneal contamination or important lesions of the posterior abdominal wall.
