VALDES FERRO, Joselín et al. Primary suture and transcecal ileostomy in surgical emergencies of left colon. Rev Ciencias Médicas [online]. 2011, vol.15, n.2, pp. 13-33. ISSN 1561-3194.

Introduction: a controversy about surgical alternative to the solution of surgical emergencies of left colon gives rise. Objective: to compare primary suture and transcecal ileostomy with a conventional colostomy probe in patients operated on left colon. Methods: an analytical, observational, prospective and longitudinal study. Target group: 70 patients having the diagnosis of surgical emergencies due to left colon conditions. Sample: 34 patients who underwent left colon surgeries from January 2006 and 2010 at "Abel Santamaria Cuadrado" and "Leon Cuervo Rubio" Provincial General University Hospitals. Two groups chosen at random were included: group-A (sample), 34 patients with suture or intestinal resection plus primary anastomosis and transcecal ileostomy with probe; group-B (control) 36 patients with intestinal resection and conventional colostomy. Chi square test with a significance level of 0,05 and percentages were applied. Results: traumatic sigmoid perforations prevailed (37,1%) and sigmoid volvulus with vascular compromise (31,4%) in both groups, male sex and ages from 51 to 60 predominated. In group-A the 11,7% of patients presented complications that were not related to dehiscence of anastomosis; in group-B the complications reached 55,5% prevailing the infection of surgical wound and the general ones. Global mortality of the primary suture with transcecal ileostomy was 2,9% and 11,1% with conventional colostomy. The probe of the ileostomy was removed at 7 days on average; currently the quality of life of these patients is satisfactory. Conclusion: primary suture and transcecal ileostomy present much less complications as well as mortality, it minimizes psychological damage, and this is the most physiologic surgical alternative.
