Several retrospective studies involving over 3,000 eviscerations, however, have failed to identify a single case of SO. Once SO is developed, immunosuppressive therapy is the mainstay of treatment. When initiated promptly following injury, it is effective in controlling the inflammation and improving the prognosis.
There are also some pre-existing conditions that may complicate or preclude the treatment.
