“…[1][2][3]6 Emergency sur- gery for colorectal obstruction carries a higher morbidity than elective colon surgery and mortality of 10% to 28%. [1][2][3][4][5][6] This difference in outcome is related to the poor medical condition of the patients as well as to the unprepared bowel resulting in increased infectious complications. Effective measures that will allow for the delay of surgery until patients can be medically optimized and undergo mechanical preparation of the colon could result in improved outcomes.…”

“…The need for emergent surgery in a patient with an unprepared colon leads to significant morbidity and mortality. [1][2][3][4][5][6] In patients with advanced malignant disease or with prohibitive operative risk, surgical intervention for colorectal obstruction appears even less appealing. The need for a less morbid treatment modality has led to the use of self-expandable metallic stents (SEMS) to relieve colorectal obstruction.…”

“…Esta, por determinar inflamação excessiva e aumentar a atividade da colagenase, contribui para deiscência de anastomoses 17 . A obstrução de cólon é uma situação comum na prática médica e está associada a várias doenças como câncer de cólon, doença diverticular, megacólon chagá-sico e doenças inflamatórias intestinais entre outras 18 . Resta ainda muita controvérsia quanto a abordagem cirúrgica a ser adotada: em uma tempo (ressecção e anastomose primária) ou dois tempos (ressecção com colostomia) 19 .…”
