Postoperative eviscerations involve protrusion of intra-abdominal organs through a destroyed surgical wound. They represent a rare but constant surgical complication in surgery and are associated with significant morbidity and mortality, even if managed promptly. The paper aims to review, based on personal experience and statistics, the etiopathogenic and anatomoclinical aspects of eviscerations, as well as preventive and curative measures. Increased awareness among surgeons and clinicians is crucial, especially given the reports of late and atypical presentations.
