[Abdomino-perineal amputation: socio-occupational reintegration and late postoperative complications].
The major social, professional and organic sequelae of abdomino-peritoneal amputation are underestimated. A study covering 274 abdomino-perineal amputations performed between 1965 and 1981 served to determine the degree of social and professional reintegration in 64 patients who underwent surgery at age below 60. No patient was without sequelae. The leading complications are genital (87%) and urinary (30%). 65% of patients who had undergone surgery resumed work, but 26% were unable to work and are on national insurance. Specific "stoma care consultation" can help to reintegrate the patients who have undergone surgery and lessen their handicap by means, for example, of stoma irrigation.
