Since several decades, Hartmann’s procedure hasbeen performed in patients with purulent or fecal peritonitis.This is a two-stage operative approach. Dur-ing the first stage, the diseased segment of colon isresected, an end colostomy is performed, and the distalrectal stump is oversewn. During the second stage,colonic continuity is re-established. High mortalityrate and other serious complications were noted afterHartmann’s procedure. The mortality following Hartmann’sprocedure for diverticulitis was reportedly9.83-20.03%. The following were the most commonlyencountered surgical complications: intra-abdominalabscess, bleeding, wound infection, and wound dehiscence.The overall post-operative complication ratewas reportedly 31.3%-51.9%.However, the reversalof Hartmann’s procedure is considered a major operationassociated with high morbidity and mortality ofup to 58% and 3.6%, respectively.6 Stoma reversalrate of Hartmann’s procedure for diverticulitis was reportedly42%-47%. Consequently, numerous patientsare left with a permanent stoma following Hartmann’sprocedure owing to either an inability to performreversal or high risk of general anesthesia.
