Résumé
Introduction Small bowel injury during peritoneal entry may occur unexpectedly at cesarean section (CS) and may present unexpected management problems and prolonged postoperative hospital stay. Methods This was an observational study of patients who sustained inadvertent injuries compared to those who did not. Both study and control patients had the same number of previous cesarean sections. Findings In this study population, the frequency of small bowel injury during peritoneal entry was 0.0003/10,000 cesarean sections. The majority comprised serosal trauma (7/10) and tended to occur in females who had had two or more CS. Compared to patients with a similar number of previous cesarean sections, patients who sustained small bowel injuries in the index cesarean section were twice as likely to have had adhesiolysis of flimsy or dense lesions in the immediate preceding procedure. Conclusion Bowel injury during peritoneal entry at cesarean section is rare but may be frequently encountered in maternity units with high-volume CS rates.
