Abstract

Objective: To analyze the different types of surgery and medical treatments used in patients with inflammatory bowel disease in the
province of Albacete.
Methods: Observational cross-sectional study in which patients from the department of general surgery hospital in Albacete diagnosed
with inflammatory bowel disease in a period of 7 years were included. A review of medical records was performed. Variables studied:
sex, age at diagnosis, age at first surgery, medical history, drug treatment, type of surgery (elective or emergency), reason for
emergency surgery, surgical technique, types of postoperative complications, presence of malignancy and days of hospital stay.
Results: 43 patients were operated. 55.8% were men. 39.5% were diagnosed with ulcerative colitis, and the remaining 60.5% of
Crohn's disease. The most commonly used medical treatments were azathioprine in CD and mesalazine in UC. The first surgery was
around 35 years. The EC was the most surgeries scheduled and urgently required, and the main reason for this latest was the drilling
of small bowel. In UC main surgical treatment was total colectomy, while in EC was the ileocolic resection.
Conclusions: Intestinal perforation is the main reason for surgery in inflammatory bowel disease.
