[Surgery experience regarding the pathology of the greater omentum].
This study followed the evaluation of the surgical pathology of the greater omentum. From the casuistry of Urology Surgery Clinic in Hospital 2 Iaşi, we have selected 1500 omentum pathologic specimens (inflammatory, traumatic, tumoral) that were investigated macroscopically and microscopically. The specimens were harvested during 1993-2000. Acute inflammatory involvement of the greater omentum recognizes a primitive etiology in 8-10% cases and secondary one in 90-92% cases; these lesions are associated to some inflammatory processes of peritoneal viscera by direct or indirect mechanisms. Non-tumoral pathology was signaled in 201 cases, malignant and benign tumors were found in 198 cases. Acute catarrhallis and phlegmonous omentitis were identified in: peritonitis by digestive perforation (240 cases), bladder perforation (12 cases), broken pyosalpinx (18 cases), acute calculosic colecystitis (260 cases), hernia (75 cases), strangled eventration (65 cases). The conclusion of our study is that there is a specific pathology for the omentum but also the latter is largely involved in the emergency and iterative abdominal surgical pathology.
