Subacute Intestinal Obstruction

BACKGROUND: Intestinal obstruction is a surgical emergency that causes confusion both in the diagnosis and the management. It is related by important disease and mortality. The goal of this study was to classify the etiology, to analyse the methods of performance of acute duodenal obstruction in different age groups, various therapeutic modalities of treatment, to accomplish operative management, anticipate the post-operative complications and outcomes of patients with acute intestinal obstruction. MATERIAL& METHODS: 82 patients of all age groups (except infants) presenting with acute intestinal obstruction were studied between June 2017 and December 2018 in a multispeciality hospital in Eastern India. Patients with history of subacute intestinal obstruction and paralytic ileus were excluded from this study. RESULTS: Males were found to be affected much more than females. Pain abdomen was the most common symptom found in 94% cases followed by distension and vomiting in 86.6% and 68.3% cases respectively. Most common etiology of intestinal obstruction was due to adhesion and bands (40.3%) followed by obstructed hernia (22%) and malignancy (17%). The most common procedure done in intestinal obstruction in present study was release of adhesions and bands (37.8%) followed by resection and anastomosis (26.8%). CONCLUSION: Bowel obstruction continues to be one of the most common abdominal problems faced by general surgeons. Success in the treatment of intestinal obstruction depends largely upon early diagnosis, skilful management and treating the pathological effects of the obstruction just as much as the cause itself.

Encapsulating Peritonitis

Sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis (SEP) or abdominal cocoon is a rare acquired condition with an unknown aetiology. It is characterized by encapsulation of the small bowel by a fibrous membrane and can lead to intestinal obstruction. We present the case of a 42-year-old gentleman with a history of hepatitis C, tuberculosis, and previous abdominal surgery, who presented with subacute intestinal obstruction. Surgical exploration of the abdomen revealed that the entire contents were enclosed into three distinct sacs by a dense fibrous membrane. Excision of the sacs was performed followed by adhesiolysis. This is believed to be the first reported case of multiple cocoons within the abdominal cavity. The case is discussed with reference to the literature.

Crohn’s disease is an uncommon disease. Most common presentation is abdominal pain, diarrhea and weight loss. It may present as subacute or even acute intestinal obstruction. Crohn’s disease is very rare in Bangladesh. Here we report a case of Crohn’s disease where the initial presentation was severe microcytic hypochromic anaemia. Who had repeated blood transfusion for one year. Initially cause was not detected. Later on he presented with subacute intestinal obstruction. After all diagnostic work up no definitive diagnosis could be found. So laparotomy was done in Bangabandhu Shiekh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU). Histopathology report was suggestive of Crohn’s disease and he was on mesalazine with significant clinical improvement.
