Late laparoscopic management of traumatic rectal injury without protective colostomy.

Abstract
The gold standard of treatment in the case of fecal peritonitis in association with traumatic rectal perforation is closure of the perforation in combination with a diverting colostomy. In this paper, we report the successful laparoscopic management of such a trauma without colostomy 24 hours after the incident.
