Current guidelines recommend the conservative approach, unless operative intervention is indicated. Case: Here, we present a case of a young male who underwent early laparoscopic adhesiolysis for ASBO. Discussion: Nonoperative management resolves majority of ASBO cases but has high recurrence. Early surgical management (ESM) has been shown to reduce recurrence rate and long-term health consequences. Conclusion: ESM can be considered for recurrent ASBO in younger patients with fewer comorbidities.https://www.karger.com/Article/FullText/517098adhesive small bowel obstructionearly surgeryemergencygastroenterologygeneral surgerysurgerytreatment |
