Trial summary

Gastric perforation (GP) is a penetrating lesion of the gastric wall that accounts for 10-15% of all peptic ulcer perforations, and most GP are spontaneous perforations caused by ulcer disease. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of Laparoscopic Surgery and Open Surgery for Repair of Gastric Perforation: a Multicenter, Propensity Score-matched Analysis

Gastric perforation (GP) is a penetrating lesion of the gastric wall that accounts for 10-15% of all peptic ulcer perforations, and most GP are spontaneous perforations caused by ulcer disease. Due to the presence of gastric acid, most patients often present to the emergency department with severe abdominal or chest pain due to chemical peritonitis within a few hours of perforation. Emergency physicians often quickly diagnose GP by using a chest x-ray or CT in an upright position and the patient's symptoms. Studies have shown that about 80-85% of patients with GP had subphrenic free gas visible on x-ray in the upright position.

Surgery is currently the mainstay of treatment for most GP, and almost all cases require urgent surgical repair.2 Over the past few years, laparoscopic surgery has become increasingly popular in clinical practice due to its advantages of less pain, less scarring, and early mobility out of bed, and has become the standard treatment for many elective and emergency procedures.

Since the laparoscopic study of PPU was first published by Mouret P in 1990, investigators have launched extensive discussions on the effects of laparoscopic surgery and open surgery in patients with perforated ulcers. However, to our knowledge, there are few separate discussions on GP, and the postoperative prognosis of laparoscopic surgery for patients with GP is less clear. Therefore, the aim of this multicenter, large-scale retrospective study was to compare the clinical outcomes of laparoscopic surgery and open surgery in patients with GP, to investigate whether laparoscopic surgery is safe and feasible for patients with GP, and to provide reliable evidence for surgical strategies in patients with GP.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. overall survival

    Overall survival (OS) was described as time from date of diagnosis until the date of death from any cause or or loss to follow-up.

    Measured: From date of diagnosis until the date of death from any cause or or loss to follow-up, whichever came first, assessed up to 60 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gastric Perforation, run by Dong Peng.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Mar 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

overall survival (time frame: From date of diagnosis until the date of death from any cause or or loss to follow-up, whichever came first, assessed up to 60 months.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Mar 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
