dc.description.abstractBackground/Purpose: Colonic injuries are rare in childhood, but when they do occur, they are mostly associated with penetrating abdominal injuries. The primary repair of colon injuries without stoma is still controversial within surgical experience, and the potential risk factors affecting morbidity and mortality is not sufficiently known. Methods: Between 1985 and 1997, 34 children presenting with traumatic colonic perforations were reevaluated by analyzing the relationship between the overall morbidity and mortality and the potential risk factors. Results: Of the 34 children in the case study, 27 boys and 7 girls, there were 7 (21%) isolated colonic injuries. The remaining 27 (79%) patients showed colonic injuries most frequently associated with the small bowel, the liver, and the bladder. Localization of injury was distributed thus: 21% in the right colon, 29% in the transverse colon, and 50% in the left colon, Primary repair, with or without intestinal resection, was performed in 27 (79%) of the patients. In total, postoperative complications occurred in 10 (29%) of the patients. Risk factors such as age, abdominal contamination, and associated abdominal organ injuries were found significant in these complications, however, the mechanism of injury, shock, blood transfusion, and localization of injury were not correlated significantly to postoperative complications. Flint's Colon Grading System was used to ascertain the sensitivity of trauma scoring systems for postoperative complications. Conclusion: Colonic wounds can be repaired primarily without the need of colostomy in the majority of cases in children when the required selections are established. J Pediatr Surg 35:1799-1804.
