Multivariate analyses of risk factors were performed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Indications for OA were diffuse peritonitis (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 47), need for second look (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 26), failure to achieve fascial closure (e.g., bowel edema) at primary laparotomy (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 24), and fascial necrosis (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 4). Of the 101 patients, 61 (60 %) were alive at discharge, with one death possibly related to OA (fistula from an iatrogenic perforation). Delayed fascial closure was obtained in 40 (66 %) of the surviving patients, with 80 % when the indications for OA was need for second look and 72 % in cases of diffuse peritonitis. Compared with need for second look [hazard ratio (HR = 1), 95 % CI], proportional HR for failure of delayed fascial closure were peritonitis 1.96 (1.10\u20133.49) and failure to achieve fascial closure at primary laparotomy 4.70 (2.17\u201310.2).

Failure of fascial closure is related to the indication of OA and the presence of a stoma.
