The aim of this paper is to determine the influnce of infection, diabetic and neoplastic disease on the occurrence of dehiscence of laparotomy. In our prospective study we first collect data after surgery of 1063 patients in hospital in Serbia. The investigated patients were divided into two groups: a group of patients who had complications-dehiscence of laparotomy with 46 patients and a control group (patients who did not have dehiscence of laparotomy) with 1017 patients. The influence of infection, diabetic and neoplastic disease on the occurrence of dehiscence of laparotomy was analyzed. In our study is no statistically significant relationship between dehiscence of laparotomy and diabetic disease. There is statistically significant association between infection, neoplastic disease and dehiscence of laparotomy.

In the group of patients with dehiscence of laparotomy is more people with diabetes than in the control group, but this was not statistically significant (χ2=0.794; p>0.05). Patients with diabetes were 37 of them, or 5.1% in the group of patients with dehiscence of laparotomy, and 685 patients with diabetes were in the group of patients without dehiscence of laparotomy or 94.9%. In patients with dehiscence without diabetes was 2.6% or 9% patients, and without dehiscence of laparotomy and 332 patients without diabetes or 97.4% (Figure 2). There is a statistically significant relationship between dehiscence of laparotomy and neoplastic diseases (χ2=19.998; p<0.01). Of the 33 patients with neoplastic disease, 10 of them had dehiscence o laparotomy or 30%, and 23 patients had no dehiscence of laparotomy, or 70%. Without malignant disease were 36 patients with dehiscence of laparotomy, or 3.5%, and 981 patients without dehiscence of laparotomy or 96.5% (Figure 3).
