Commonly, the peritoneal cavity is opened and adhesiolysis is performed with the potential for enterotomy. |
When a Gastrografin enema is unsuccessful, laparotomy is indicated to evacuate the obstructing meconium by enterotomy irrigation. |
After achieving hemostasis we had to do a small bowel resection rather than an enterotomy to remove the stones. |
Despite improved techniques, most ECFs currently develop after surgical procedures, secondary to anastomotic leakage, disruption of repaired enterotomy, or inadvertent intraoperative bowel injury. |
The surgical procedure undertaken was transfixion of the offending vessel and appropriate closure of the access enterotomy. |
It could not be reduced by gentle traction, so the lesser sac was opened up and the caecum decompressed with a small enterotomy and suction to allow reduction. |
