Abstract

Abstract Typhoid perforation still has a high mortality rate (19–59 per cent) and controversy regarding the management of patients with this complication still abounds. We report our experience of 26 children with histologically proven typhoid perforation with an operative mortality of 9·0 per cent. Timed surgery with ulcer excision, simple two-layer closure of the defect and copious peritoneal lavage were used.
