20 years of major emergency abdominal surgery in Denmark. Mortality ⬇️, MIS ⬆️, complications ➡️ and readmissions ⬆️⬆️⬆️. Emergency surgery in DK been revolutionized last 15 years, inspired by ElpQuic studies, the NELA-database and the Danish AHA-trial by @LineTengberg et al.
This Danish national cohort study demonstrated that although mortality after major emergency abdominal surgery decreased from 2002 to 2022, readmissions increased and postoperative complications remained frequent. @GormsenJohanne ja.ma/4lMFG3i

And it shows in these data. But it further raises A LOT of questions: - where should we go next? - can we battle these rates of complications? - how do we bring down these readmissions rates? Would really love to see data from other comparable countries.

Data are short-term. Patients are *very* heterogenous. Our experience: you *can* do onlay mesh in these patients but it is not for everyone. Major complications are rare but theese wounds are, in general, of a high-risk character @hgok @eurohernias @safesurg @me4_so
