The present report aims to determine the clinical importance of TIPs for the last 36 years in our region, eastern Anatolia.\n\n\t \n\n\tMaterials and Methods: The clinical records of 84 surgically treated cases with TIPs were reviewed retrospectively.\n\n\t \n\n\tResults: When the last 36-year period was sectioned by 6-year periods, the distribution of TIPs was found as 39 (46.4% of total), 31 (36.9%), 7 (8.3%), 4 (4.8%), 2 (2.4%) and 1 (1.2%), respectively. The mean age of the patients was 37.1 years (range: 7-68 years), and 66 patients (78.6%) were male. As a surgical procedure, 34 patients (40.5%) had primary repair, 9 (10.7%) had wedge resection with primary repair, 9 (10.7%) had resection with primary anastomosis, 28 (33.3%) had resection with ileostomy, and 4 (4.8%) had exteriorization. Complications were seen in 71 patients (84.5%), while the mortality rate was 10.7% (9 patients).\n\n\t \n\n\tConclusion: Although eastern Anatolia is an endemic region for TF, a certain decrease in the incidence of TIPs was found for the last 36 years. Keeping in mind the TIP, patients with TF may improve the prognosis of this serious disease.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5152\/eurasianjmed.2015.136","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,6,10]],"date-time":"2015-06-10T13:18:28Z","timestamp":1433942308000},"page":"135-137","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Typhoid Intestinal Perforations: Has the Clinical Importance Decreased in Eastern Anatolia for 36 Years?"],"prefix":"10.5152","volume":"47","author":[{"given":"S.
