Why Exploratory Laparotomy Is Needed
Exploratory laparotomy is performed as an emergency when a patient has significant abdominal trauma, unexplained internal bleeding, or signs of an acute abdomen such as a perforated organ or bowel obstruction that cannot be safely diagnosed or managed with imaging alone. It allows surgeons to directly inspect and treat life-threatening abdominal injuries or infections.
