Fístulas enterocutâneas pós-operatórias: análise de 39 pacientes

Abstract: OBJETIVO: As fístulas enterocutâneas podem ocorrer de forma espontânea ou no período pós-operatório. A fístula pós-operatória representa mais de 90% de todas as fístulas intestinais e estão quase sempre relacionadas com alguma das principais complicações da cirurgia do aparelho digestivo. De acordo com os fatores de risco e as características destas fístulas, têm sido propostas diferentes classificações prognósticas. Este estudo tem por objetivo analisar o resultado do tratamento de pacientes portadores de fís… Show more

“…Bradley et al 8 found that 20% of patients were older than 55 years, with a 79% prevalence of men 8,9 . There was a predominance of emergency surgery, but the incidence of fistula was observed with the highest proportion in elective procedures (60.3%), corroborating the study of Torres et al 5 , who found that 69.2% of fistulas took place in elective surgeries. Urgent surgery is a risk factor related to preoperative preparation, since the time for them tends to be shorter, acting as a prognostic factor [5][6][7][8][9] .…”

“…Cerca del 80 % de las fístulas enteroatmosféricas corresponden a una complicación de las cirugías abdominales y, a mayor número de reintervenciones, mayor riesgo de desarrollarlas 1,6 . El estado de nutrición del paciente juega un papel importante en el desarrollo de dichas complicaciones.…”

“…The postoperative fistula represents more than 90% of all intestinal fistulae, and is usually one of the main complications related to surgery of the digestive system 4 . Mortality rates resulting from the complications related to intestinal fistulae are still high, ranging from 6.5 to 48%, against the mean of 2% obtained from elective surgical procedures 5 .…”
