Popis: Iatrogenic perforation is an uncommon but inevitable complication of endoscopy. Laparotomy has been the standard treatment for pyloroduodenal perforations caused by endoscopy. Laparoscopic repair is a well-documented treatment modality for spontaneously perforated peptic ulcer. We report our successful laparoscopic suture repair of perforations sustained during upper gastrointestinal endoscopy in two high-risk elderly patients.
