Subcategory proportion refers to the proportion of a specific subgroup within its immediate superior category. Overall proportion refers to the proportion of perforation in a specific intestinal segment in the overall intestinal perforations. SI, small intestine; Duo, duodenum; Jej, jejunum; Ile, ileum; LI, large intestine; App., appendix; Cec, cecum; CO, colon; AC, ascending colon; TC, transverse colon; SC, sigmoid colon.
