Abstract. Objective. To determine the incidence of infectious postoperative complications in patients who underwent obstructive resection in comparison with ileo- / colostomy for tumor-associated acute colonic obstruction. Material and methods. Retrospective cohort studies, including the analysis before and after the intervention, were conducted. The studies included 297 patients operated for colorectal cancer in City Clinical Hospital No. 40 in Yekaterinburg. In 143 patients, urgent surgical intervention was performed in the volume of obstructive resection (control group), and in 154 patients in the volume of proximal ileo-/colostomy (main group). Results. In the group of patients operated under urgent conditions in the volume of proximal ileo-/colostomy, the number of infectious complications directly related to the operation was significantly lower, mainly due to the laparoscopic approach of surgical treatment. The mortality was not significantly different, but had an evident tendency to decrease in the group of patients who underwent damage control surgery, i.e., ileo-/colostomy. Conclusion. Urgent surgical intervention of proximal ileo-/colostomy for obstructing colorectal cancer in comparison with obstructive resection makes it possible to reduce the number of infectious complications in the postoperative period and can be considered as an operation of choice in conditions of limited medical resources. Laparoscopic technique, if it is possible to apply this approach, is the most optimal method of stoma formation.
