Comparative StudyLaparoscopic suture repair of perforated duodenal peptic ulcer for patients without risk factors.
Suture repair became the standard treatment for perforated duodenal ulcer (PDU) due to the efficacy of modern anti-ulcer therapy. This study compared short-term outcomes of open versus laparoscopic suture repair of PDU in patients without risk factors. ⋯ We believe that suture repair with omental patch associated with anti-ulcer medical therapy is the standard therapeutic solution in PDU for young patients without risk factors.
