[The effect of neoplastic disease and systemic disease of connective tissue on the occurrence of dehiscence laparotomy].

Dehiscence after laparotomy is one of the major complications of laparotomy. This is a partial or complete wound with disruption and evisceratio abdominal organs and require urgent reintervention. The aim of this study was to determine the impact of neoplastic disease and systemic disease of connective tissue on the occurrence of dehiscence laparotomy. A prospective study were included 612 patients operated at the Clinic for General Surgery in Nis in the period from January 2009 to December 2010. The effect of neoplastic disease and the presence of systemic disease of connective tissue on the occurrence of dehiscence laparotomy. Results are displayed numerically and in percentages. Of the total 24 patients with dehiscence laparotomy, 15 patients were male or 62.5% and 9 female patients, or 37.5%. There was a statistically significant association between dehiscence laparotomy and neoplastic diseases (c2 = 42,196; p < 0.01). There was no statistically significant association between dehiscence laparo-tomy and systemic disease of connective tissue (c2 = 0,028; p > 0.05). In patients with neoplastic diseases dehis-cence laparotomy is common, and in patients suffering from systemic disease of connective tissue dehiscence laparotomy occurs less frequently.
