Dear Dr Rathod

Sorry for giving late reply. This was a mechanical injury by suction and not an electrosurgical injury. Primary full thickness closure is sufficient. You dont need to call the surgeon and waste the time. Before the fecal matter spilled out you have closed it by intracorporeal knot this is fantastic. Your patient will recover uneventful but please must have a drain and nil orally postoperative. Broad spectrum antibiotic and careful monitoring is required.

With regard

Dr R K Mishra
