Perineal hernia with bowel gangrene is uncommon but known complication of laparoscopic extralevator abdominoperineal excision (ELAPE). We present a rare case of closed loop small bowel obstruction with bowel gangrene secondary to an incarcerated perineal hernia that developed 7 years after an ELAPE. Intraoperatively, we found a definitive transition point due to adhesions in pelvis and a closed loop obstruction of the distal small bowel at different site with gangrenous intestine. She was managed successfully surgically with adhesiolysis and fixation of defect with biological mesh. Prevalence of perineal hernias will rise in future because of the increasing cases of ELAPE, in which no repair of pelvic floor is performed. The need of follow-up of these operations and more reporting of such cases are important in increasing awareness of these complications. Patients should be made aware of such complications and should seek urgent medical care.

Abstract Introduction Roux-en-Y Gastric bypass (REYGB) amounts for a third of surgical bariatric interventions. Small bowel obstruction (SBO) is a long-term complication in REYGB and can be caused by intussusception of bowel, in approximately 0.5% of procedures.  Intussusception in REYBG is mostly attributed to dysmotility. This report demonstrates a rare case of intussusception in REYGB secondary to a benign polyp.  Case description A 45 year old female, three years post REYGB, presented to A&E with acute, extreme upper abdominal pain, with three days absolute constipation. She was tender on examination with normal blood tests. CT scan demonstrated small bowel intussusception. Initial concerns were of intussusception of the jejuno-jejunostomy anastomosis causing SBO.  She had an exploratory laparotomy, which confirmed intussusception, however this was 20cm distal to the jejuno-jejunostomy. Bowel was gently reduced, and deemed viable. On thorough run-through, a small segment at the transition point, was considered abnormal on palpation. This region was resected and a 1x1cm intraluminal polyp was identified as the causative lead point. The patient did well postoperatively.  Discussion Small bowel intussusception in adults is typically attributed to pathological lead point, such as benign or malignant lesions. Intussusception in REYBG is a rare but well-documented cause of intestinal obstruction, usually attributed to dysmotility, secondary to ectopic pacemaker cells particularly around anastomoses. In this case, the intussusception was caused by an unusual pathology separate from the jejuno-jejunal anastomosis. We recommend thorough examination of all adjacent bowel to exclude lesions, in this case a polyp, which could result in recurrence.

Inflammatory Fibroid Polyps

Inflammatory fibroid polyps are uncommon; moreover, that polyp causing secondary intussusception in an adult are still rarer. Here, we report a case of inflammatory fibroid polyp of the small bowel that presented as just vague pain in the abdomen in a 48-year-old woman. Even though investigations reported Ileo-ileal intussusception caused by a polyp, the patient did not have clinical symptoms that could be correlated. The rareness of the disease made it a clinical challenge to subject the patient to laparotomy. The rareness of non-neoplastic condition being the cause for adult ileo-ileal intussusception and the clinical challenge associated with it makes it a case worth reporting.

Short bowel syndrome is characterized by malabsorption following extensive resection of the small bowel. It may occur after resection of more than 50% and is certain after resection of more than 70% of the small intestine, or if less than 100 cm of small bowel remains.  Successful postoperative management of short bowel syndrome has been discussed. Patient was operated because of cancer of hepatic flexure of large bowel with invasion in stomach, pancreas, retroperitoneal space, mesentery of small bowel. Right sided colectomy and excessive resection of small bowel with limphodissection was performed and only 80 cm of small bowel was left together with the left part of the colon. Ileotransversoanastomosis was performed. After the adequate course of chemotherapy and partial parenteral nutrition patient’s general condition became satisfactory. Patient started to gain weight. Adequate postoperative treatment determined postoperative period without surgical and nutritional complication.

Abstract An internal hernia is a protrusion of viscera through a congenital or acquired defect in the mesentery of peritoneum. They account for <0.9% of all small bowel obstructions [1] and ~4% of obstructions due to hernias [2]. We present a rare case of closed loop obstruction secondary to a band adhesion traversing the lower abdomen from a sigmoid colon appendage epiploicae to the right pelvic wall. A 82-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with nausea, vomiting and worsening right sided abdominal pain for 24 h, on the background of previous pelvic radiation and hysterectomy for uterine cancer. She was subsequently found to have a closed loop obstruction with 30 cm of ischemic bowel strangulated by a band adhesion from a sigmoid colon appendage epiploicae to the right abdominal wall. The patient underwent a successful small bowel resection with primary anastomosis and made an uneventful recovery.

Unusual Phenomenon

A 34-year-old man presented with acute severe left-sided abdominal and flank pain with associated postprandial nausea and vomiting. CT imaging revealed findings suspicious for a closed loop small bowel obstruction. Intraoperative findings were that of a left paraduodenal hernia (of Landzert) secondary to a mesenteric defect immediately posterior to the ascending branch of the left colic artery. The defect was closed via minilaparotomy. Unfortunately, his postoperative course was complicated by small bowel obstruction which required further laparotomy and adhesiolysis. The patient eventually made a good recovery. Here, we present a rare case of intestinal obstruction and discuss the aetiologies and management of this unusual phenomenon.
