Abstrakt:	Objective To assess the frequency of early postoperative complications and surgical anatomy after ileostomy reversal among the population of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. Materials and methods In the current study, a total of 241 patients were assessed. Sufficient urine output, usual serum electrolytes and urea were indicators of a sufficient recovery. All patients remained in the ward for a minimum of seven days after surgery to detect early postoperative complications like surgical site infection (SSI), wound dehiscence, small bowel obstruction, and anastomotic leak. Results In the present study, 113 (47%) were in age 18-40 years, while 128 (53%) patients were in age 41-60 years. The mean age was 40±10.05. One hundred twenty-three (51%) were male, and 118 (49%) patients were female. One hundred seventy-one (71%) had ileostomy closure in ≤3 months, 70 (29%) had ileostomy closure in >3 months. The mean duration of closure was 03±3.70 months. One hundred and six (44%) had enteric perforation, 87 (36%) had blunt trauma, 48 (20%) had tuberculous abdomen. Moreover, the frequency of early complications of ileostomy closure was analyzed as 19 (8%) had surgical site infection, 14 (6%) patients had wound dehiscence, 12 (5%) patients had small bowel obstruction, and three (1%) patients had anastomotic leakage. Conclusions Our study concluded that early postoperative complications and surgical anatomy after ileostomy reversal among the population of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan were surgical site infection (8%), wound dehiscence (6%), small bowel obstruction (5%), and anastomotic leak was (1%).
