Název v původním jazyce

Post-surgical bowel obstruction associated with small-intestine ascariasis

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The case report describes post-operative bowel obstruction after multiple abdominal gun-shot injuries. The ileus was caused by primary unrecognized massively infested intestine with ascarides (Ascaris lumbricoides). 14-year-old boy was wounded during a gunfight. Peri-surgical investigations revealed a double gunshot injury to the small intestine at the interface between the jejunum and the ileum; mesenteric artery bleeding caused haemoperitoneum. The bleeding was stopped, and the injured intestine was treated with direct end-to-end anastomosis using continuous suture. An arrest of gastrointestinal motility occurred during the early post-operative period. Follow-up computed tomography confirmed that the intestine was infested with ascarides (Ascaris lumbricoides). Administration of oral albendazole (Zentel®) led to gradual excretion of the worms in the stool two days later as well as the restoration of peristalsis. This case is an interesting example of intestinal obstruction that most likely occurred due to small-intestine gunshot injury-associated post-operative paralytic ileus and was significantly potentiated by the presence of parasites in the gastrointestinal tract.
