Core Tip Intestinal tuberculosis is often complicated by obstruction, perforation, or hemorrhage; thus requiring surgical intervention under emergency settings, but little systematic investigation of risk factors for poor wound healing in this subset exists. In our study we observed the incidence of poor wound healing (19.1%) after emergency intestinal tuberculosis surgery, 63.6% of them were diagnosed as surgical site infection. Five independent risk factors were determined by multivariate logistic regression analysis: Age ≥ 60 years, body mass index < 18.5 kg/m2, diabetes mellitus history, serum albumin concentration < 30 g/L and C-reactive protein > 50 mg/L. Therefore, clinicians should screen these parameters in preoperative evaluation and take targeted interventions (nutritional optimization, glycemic control and anti-inflammatory therapy) to reduce complications and achieve better outcomes.
