Abstract

Background: Among the most common complaints in elderly age group is constipation. Appropriate dietary regimes and administration of dietary fibers are effective in alleviating this symptom. When the mentioned problem continues, it is the time that some of patients use unusual methods for treating constipation! Till now, several reports have mentioned using different types of foreign bodies in return for relieving constipation. We have reported five patients with severe constipation, after self-enema with high pressure water in home, leading to COLORECTAL PERFORATIONs.Materials and Methods: Five patients with peritonitis due to perforation of colon due to improper self enema, characteristics & outcome of them after operation have been reported through a descriptive study.Results: The average age was 69.6 year, four of them were male and one was female. All of them had used self-enema because of constipation. One of patients had permanent colostomy because of severe anal sphincter injury & did self-enema through colostomy site. Clinical presentations of patients were sudden onset severe abdominal pain, peritonitis. Two of them died during 24 hours after operation (mean age: 76.5). Average time needed since onset of symptoms till operation for dead and alive patient was 12.6, 4.6 hours respectively. Average age of patients that were alive was 65 years. In dead patients operation finding was rectal perforation in upper third segment & in *alive* patient was sigmoid colon perforation. The cause of death of two patients was severe sepsis & myocardial infarction. The average hospital stay of other three patients was 11.6 day four of five patients had chronic diseases such as OM, HTN and CRF. Early post up complication in one patient was facial dehiscence and in another was wound infection. One of patients after two years, with clinical diagnosis of colonic obstruction due to cancer of colon was operated.Conclusion: We recommend emergency laparotomy with least time consuming for pre-operation work up. With regards to advanced age, high incidence of constipation in this age group appropriate & correct ways should be educated to families & discourage them from self-enema with high pressure water! Other clinical trails with more cases are needed to determine relationships between concomitant intra luminal pathology & COLORECTAL PERFORATION following self-enema.
