Clinical data of 289 patients aged 60 years old and above with acute intestinal obstruction operated in Drum Tower Hospital during June 2010 to December 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. Among 289 cases, 97 cases(33.6%)had tumor, 66(22.8%)had external hernias, 44(15.2%)had adhesions, 36(12.5%)had volvulus, 20(6.9%)had internal hernias, 8(2.8%)had intussusception and 18(6.2%)had other causes. Of 156 strangulated intestinal obstruction cases, 51 cases(32.7%)had external hernias,36(23.1%)had volvulus, 26(16.7%)had adhesions, 18(11.5%)had internal hernias, 14(9.0%)had tumor, 8(5.1%)had intussusception, and 3(1.9%)had other causes. There was a history of abdominal surgery in 88.6%(39/44)cases of adhesion, 85.0% (17/20) cases of internal hernia and 61.1%(22/36)cases of volvulus. For patients with acute intestinal obstruction caused by intestinal tumor, the cases of small bowel obstruction, strangulated intestinal obstruction and the strangulated large bowel were significantly less than those of large bowel obstruction, the non-strangulated intestinal obstruction and the non-strangulated large bowel obstruction (5 vs. 92, 14 vs. 80, 12 vs. 83, respectively; all P<0.05). For patients with strangulated intestinal obstruction caused by external hernias, volvulus, internal hernias and intussusception were significantly more than those with non-strangulated intestinal obstruction groups(51 vs.15, 36 vs. 0, 18 vs. 2, 8 vs. 0, respectively; P<0.05). The patients with strangulated large bowel obstruction caused by external hernias( n=4) and volvulus( n=9)were significantly more than those with non-strangulated large bowel obstruction( n=1 and 0, respectively; P<0.05). The patients with strangulated small bowel obstruction caused by adhesions( n=26)and volvulus( n=27)were significantly more than those with non-strangulated small bowel obstruction( n=18 and 0,respectively; P<0.05).The study showed that the principal causes of emergency operation for acute intestinal obstruction and strangulated intestinal obstruction are intestinal tumor and external hernias in elderly patients.
