[The clinical and diagnostic characteristics of perforations in acutely bleeding gastroduodenal ulcers].
Over the period 1982-1996 a total of 8822 patients with ulcerorrhagias were treated in a clinical setting. In 122 (1.4%) patients different variants of association of perforation of the bleeding ulcers (PBU) were recordable. Features of development, course, diagnosis and treatment of PBU patients were studied. Two variants of PBU development were identified: concurrently emerging perforation with ulcer bleeding--in 34 (27.9%) patients; when perforation of the ulcer emerged in 88 (72.1%) in--patients one to seven days following a bleeding event, presenting in 48 (54.5%) with bleeding recurrence, and in 40 (45.5%) patients without the above recurrence against the background of varying degrees gravity of loss of blood. As to PBU localization, 92 (75.4%) patients had the same site (in the stomach--18 subjects, pyloroduodenal region--74 ones), 30 (24.6%) patients developed simultaneously one perforating gastric or duodenal ulcer and some other ulcer bleeding. Analysis of symptoms in PBU and in 474 patients presenting with perforating ulcers without bleeding revealed varying degrees atypicalness of PBU course depending on variants of combination. A symptom complex of lesser PBU sign has been singled out, an algorithm proposed for procedures that might be helpful in making early diagnosis and planning surgical treatment to be done in a timely fashion. The suggested approach enabled the postoperative mortality to be reduced 3.5-fold (from 25% to as low as 7.1%).
