Un raro caso di Occlusione Intestinale:Fitobezoar
2004
Gli Autori riportano il caso di una paziente di 62 anni affetta da fitobezoar gastrico, sottoposto a frammentazione e asportazione per via endoscopica. A distanza di 36 ore circa dall'esecuzione di tale metodica, la paziente ha manifestato l'insorgenza di una sindrome occlusiva. L'esame TC addome evidenziava il digiuno e le prime anse ileali sovradistese dopo somministrazione di mdc per os. Nel lume di un'ansa ileale, a valle, si evidenziava la presenza di una formazione disomogenea, del diametro 2,5x4 cm nel cui contesto si rilevano piccole bolle di gas, da riferire in 1° ipotesi a bezoar. La paziente veniva quindi sottoposta a intervento chirurgico di enterotomia e asportazione del materi…
Corpi estranei gastrici: i bezoari. A proposito di due casi
2004
Objective: The authors report their experience about the treat merit of two cases of gastric bczoar, treated in curative mode, the first endoscopically and the second with surgical intervention. Setting: Operative Unit of General and Thoracic Surgery, Department of General and Emergency Surgery, Organ Transplantation. Policlinico, University of Palermo. Imerventaiion: The patients were submitted to curative treatment, one with endoscopic treatment (mechanical frag- mentation of phytobezoar and fragments extraction via-over- tube), the second with surgical gastrotomy {stamp trichobezoar). There were no procedure- related complications. Results: the two patients were curative and radically tr…

Juxtapapillary duodenal diverticular bezor as an exceptional cause of biliary stent obstruction. Case report.
2007
INTRODUCTION: we describe the first case in literature of biliary stent obstruction by bezoar impaction in a iuxtapapillary duodenal diverticulum. CASE REPORT: this case illustrates an juxtapapillary duodenal diverticulum and bezoar in it causing obstructive jaundice in subject with two biliary stents for cholangiocarcinoma (Klatskin's tumor) in the absence of bile duct stones. RESULT: successful treatment with endoscopic stent removal and diverticulum toilette. Obstructive jaundice was cured after endoscopic removal of the bezoar and stent substitution. DISCUSSION: the presence of a bezoar and its possible contribution to the pathogenesis of pancreatitis in the presence of periampullary ex…
Computed tomography of bowel obstruction: Tricks of the trade
2015
Bowel obstruction (BO) is a frequent cause of hospitalization and surgical consultation for acute abdominal pain. It is usually suspected at physical examination, but clinical and laboratory data are often nonspecific. Thus, computed tomography plays a crucial role in a correct diagnosis of BO. Indeed, computed tomography can confirm a diagnosis of BO, and identify the location and cause of the obstruction. In this review, the computed tomography appearances of common and uncommon causes of BO and pseudo-obstruction are reviewed.
