ABSTRACT

Abdominal re operations are frequent these days and usually arises from a first procedure which may not be entirely successful; which detects a problem that could not be solved because the haemodynamic or ventilatory patient status, or due to postoperative complications related with underlying diseases.
There are just a few studies or publications related with guidelines that should be followed to prevent abdominal reoperations.
At the surgery service in “Dr. Darío Fernández Fierro” General Hospital, abdominal re operations are relatively frequent with a widespread range of associated morbimortality. Aim of the study is to know risk factors related with abdominal reoperations.
Conclutions: Our results are similar to those found in world´s literature about the most frecuent diagnosis and age and sex distribution in patients underwent reoperations. Almost all the patients who had take some kind of Non esteroideal antiinflamatory drugs or antibiotics prior diagsnostic or those who present longer evolution period, experimented a higher relative risk to be reoperated than those patients who hasn´t take medications or those who had a short evolution time.
