Intestinal Atresia
Gastroschisis
Duodenal Obstruction
Hindrance of the passage of luminal contents in the DUODENUM. Duodenal obstruction can be partial or complete, and caused by intrinsic or extrinsic factors. Simple obstruction is associated with diminished or stopped flow of luminal contents. Strangulating obstruction is associated with impaired blood flow to the duodenum in addition to obstructed flow of luminal contents.

Spontaneous gastrointestinal perforation in patients with lymphoma receiving chemotherapy and steroids. Report of three cases. (1/200)
Spontaneous gastrointestinal perforations in three patients with lymphoma were considered to be treatment-related conditions. All three were diagnosed as having malignant lymphoma by histological examination, and treated with chemotherapy and steroids. Four to 14 days after the start of chemotherapy, they complained of abdominal pain and plain roentgenograms revealed pneumoperitoneum. The interval between the onset of peritonitis and operation was almost 24 h. Emergency operations were carried out; one patient with a jejunal perforation underwent resection of the jejunum, another with a gastric perforation received a simple closure with omental patch, and the third with a gastric perforation underwent gastrectomy. Two patients recovered from the surgery, while the gastrectomy patient died due to sepsis. The favorable outcome of the surgical intervention is attributed to early diagnosis, prompt exploration, and selective operative procedures. We recommended a simple closure with omental patch for gastroduodenal perforation. Resection and primary anastomosis are possible only in the small bowel. (+info)Two way push videoenteroscopy in investigation of small bowel disease. (2/200)
AIMS: To evaluate the diagnostic yield and safety of a new push type videoenteroscope (PVE) for diagnosis of small bowel disease. METHODS: Three hundred and thirteen patients were referred for one or two way PVE from December 1993 to June 1996. Indications for PVE were: an unexplained iron deficiency anaemia with or without clinically evident gastrointestinal bleeding; or a complementary investigation for suspected small bowel disease, after a small bowel barium follow through (SBBFT) considered as normal or abnormal, but without a definite diagnosis. RESULTS: A jejunoscopy and a retrograde ileoscopy were carried out in 306 and 234 patients, respectively. In patients with isolated anaemia (n = 131) and those with clinically evident gastrointestinal bleeding associated anaemia (n = 72), PVE provided a diagnosis in 26 (19.8%) and 22 (30.5%) cases, respectively. Lesions found were located in the jejunoileum in 30 (14.7%) patients and in the gastroduodenum or the colon in 18 (8.8%) patients--that is, within the reach of the conventional gastroscope/colonoscope. In patients with normal (n = 54) or abnormal (n = 56) SBBFT, PVE provided a diagnosis in 17 (31%) and 27 (48%) cases, respectively. In 25% of cases, the abnormal appearance of SBBFT was not confirmed. The site of the radiological abnormality was not reached in 27% of cases. Lesions were located at the jejunum and the ileum in 59 (64%) and 33 (36%) cases, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: PVE is useful in around 30% of cases of unexplained anaemia or after an SBBFT which failed to provide an accurate aetiological diagnosis. Use of retrograde videoenteroscopy increases diagnostic yield by one third. (+info)Mucosal intra-epithelial lymphocytes in enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma, ulcerative jejunitis, and refractory celiac disease constitute a neoplastic population. (3/200)
Loss of response to a gluten-free diet (refractory sprue) and ulcerative jejunitis are complications of celiac disease that may progress to enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL). Both conditions are characterized by the presence of a nonlymphomatous monoclonal T-cell population in the enteropathic mucosa. In EATL, a similar monoclonal population that shows clonal identity with the lymphoma itself is also present in the enteropathic mucosa. In this study we show that in all three circumstances the monoclonal T-cell population is constituted by cytologically normal, noninvasive intraepithelial T lymphocytes that share an identical aberrant immunophenotype with EATL. Patients with refractory sprue and/or ulcerative jejunitis are, therefore, suffering from a neoplastic T-cell disorder for which hematological treatment strategies need to be devised. (+info)Multiple spontaneous small bowel perforations due to systemic cholesterol atheromatous embolism. (4/200)
A-65-year-old man was admitted for coronary and peripheral angiography to evaluate angina pectoris and peripheral vascular disease. Following angiography, he suffered from blue toes, livedo reticularis and progressive renal failure. The patient's condition continued to deteriorate, including the development of malnutrition. Four months later he suddenly developed panperitonitis, went into shock and died. The autopsy verified multiple perforations of the small bowel with disseminated cholesterol atheromatous embolism. The other organs including kidney were also invaded by atheroembolism. This was a rare case of multiple spontaneous perforations of small bowel due to systemic cholesterol atheromatous embolism. (+info)Jejunal perforation caused by abdominal angiostrongyliasis. (5/200)
The authors describe a case of abdominal angiostrongyliasis in an adult patient presenting acute abdominal pain caused by jejunal perforation. The case was unusual, as this affliction habitually involves the terminal ileum, appendix, cecum or ascending colon. The disease is caused by the nematode Angiostrongylus costaricensis, whose definitive hosts are forest rodents while snails and slugs are its intermediate hosts. Infection in humans is accidental and occurs via the ingestion of snail or slug mucoid secretions found on vegetables, or by direct contact with the mucus. Abdominal angiostrongyliasis is clinically characterized by prolonged fever, anorexia, abdominal pain in the right-lower quadrant, and peripheral blood eosinophilia. Although usually of a benign nature, its course may evolve to more complicated forms such as intestinal obstruction or perforation likely to require a surgical approach. Currently, no efficient medication for the treatment of abdominal angiostrongyliasis is known to be available. In this study, the authors provide a review on the subject, considering its etiopathogeny, clinical picture, diagnosis and treatment. (+info)Similarities between ileal Crohn's disease and indomethacin experimental jejunal ulcers in the rat. (6/200)
BACKGROUND: Both Crohn's disease ileal ulcers and indomethacin-induced jejunal ulcers in the rat have a predilection for the mesenteric margin of the bowel wall. Unlike the anti-mesenteric margin, the mesenteric margin is supplied by small end-arteries that might render it more sensitive to ischaemic injury. AIM: To examine, in both situations, the histological relationship between the precise localization of small bowel ulcers and the mesenteric margin. METHODS: Ileal Crohn's disease ulcers identified in surgical resection specimens (n=5) and indomethacin-induced lesions in the rat jejunum (n=6) were examined macroscopically and histologically. RESULTS: In both the human ileum and the rat jejunum, ulcers occurred consistently along the mesenteric margin, with the most extensive mucosal injury occurring at two adjacent sites on either side of the midline of this margin. At these two sites, feeding arteries entered the muscularis propria. CONCLUSIONS: For anatomical reasons apparently related to the vasculature of the human and rodent small bowel, specific sites along the mesenteric margin are susceptible to Crohn's disease ulceration and NSAID damage, respectively. (+info)Jejunal angiomatoses causing small bowel obstruction in a patient with Down syndrome: a case report. (7/200)
Gastrointestinal vascular anomalies are extremely uncommon. We describe a patient with Down syndrome who presented with acute abdominal pain due to a mixed capillary and venous vascular malformation involving the proximal jejunum. (+info)Isolated jejunal varices. (8/200)
Isolated jejunal varices are an uncommon manifestation of portal hypertension. A one and a half year old boy presented with recurrent, massive gastrointestinal bleeding from jejunal varices. The bleeding site was identified at exploratory laparotomy. Jejunal resection and anastomosis resulted in complete resolution of the bleeding and there has been no recurrent bleeding over an eight month follow-up period. (+info)Jejunal diseases refer to a range of medical conditions that primarily affect the jejunum, the middle section of the small intestine, and can cause symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, malabsorption, and weight loss.
Jejunal diseases refer to a range of medical conditions that affect the jejunum, which is the middle section of the small intestine. These diseases can cause various symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, bloating, nausea, vomiting, and weight loss. Some examples of jejunal diseases include:
1. Jejunal inflammation or infection (jejunitis)
2. Crohn's disease, which can affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract including the jejunum
3. Intestinal lymphoma, a type of cancer that can develop in the small intestine
4. Celiac disease, an autoimmune disorder that causes damage to the small intestine when gluten is consumed
5. Intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), which can occur due to various reasons including structural abnormalities or motility disorders of the jejunum
6. Meckel's diverticulum, a congenital condition where a small pouch protrudes from the wall of the intestine, usually located in the ileum but can also affect the jejunum
7. Intestinal strictures or obstructions caused by scarring, adhesions, or tumors
8. Radiation enteritis, damage to the small intestine caused by radiation therapy for cancer treatment.
The diagnosis and management of jejunal diseases depend on the specific condition and its severity. Treatment options may include medications, dietary modifications, surgery, or a combination of these approaches.
Intestinal atresia is a congenital anomaly characterized by the absence of a patent lumen in any segment of the intestine, resulting from failure of recanalization during embryonic development.
Intestinal atresia is a congenital condition characterized by the absence or complete closure of a portion of the intestine, preventing the passage of digested food from the stomach to the remaining part of the intestines. This results in a blockage in the digestive system, which can be life-threatening if not treated promptly after birth. The condition can occur anywhere along the small or large intestine and may affect either a single segment or multiple segments of the intestine.
There are several types of intestinal atresia, including:
1. Jejunal atresia: A closure or absence in the jejunum, a part of the small intestine located between the duodenum and ileum.
2. Ileal atresia: A closure or absence in the ileum, the lower portion of the small intestine that connects to the large intestine (cecum).
3. Colonic atresia: A closure or absence in the colon, a part of the large intestine responsible for storing and eliminating waste.
4. Duodenal atresia: A closure or absence in the duodenum, the uppermost portion of the small intestine that receives chyme (partially digested food) from the stomach.
5. Multiple atresias: When more than one segment of the intestines is affected by atresia.
The exact cause of intestinal atresia remains unclear, but it is believed to be related to disruptions in fetal development during pregnancy. Treatment typically involves surgical correction to reconnect the affected segments of the intestine and restore normal digestive function. The prognosis for infants with intestinal atresia depends on the severity and location of the atresia, as well as any associated conditions or complications.
Gastroschisis is a congenital abdominal wall defect, usually located to the right of the umbilical cord, through which the abdominal organs such as the intestines protrude and are not protected by a sac, causing potential complications like bowel inflammation and malformation.
Gastroschisis is a congenital abdominal wall defect, characterized by an opening, usually to the right of the umbilical cord, through which the abdominal organs such as the intestines protrude. It's typically not covered by a sac or membrane. The exact cause of gastroschisis is unknown, but it's thought to be related to disrupted blood flow in the area where the abdominal wall develops during pregnancy. This condition is usually detected prenatally through ultrasound and requires surgical repair shortly after birth.
Duodenal obstruction is a condition characterized by the partial or complete blockage in the flow of luminal contents through the duodenum, which can be caused by various congenital or acquired factors, leading to symptoms such as vomiting, abdominal pain, and distention.
Duodenal obstruction is a medical condition characterized by the blockage or impediment of the normal flow of contents through the duodenum, which is the first part of the small intestine. This blockage can be partial or complete and can be caused by various factors such as:
1. Congenital abnormalities: Duodenal atresia or stenosis, where there is a congenital absence or narrowing of a portion of the duodenum.
2. Inflammatory conditions: Duodenitis, Crohn's disease, or tumors that cause swelling and inflammation in the duodenum.
3. Mechanical obstructions: Gallstones, tumors, strictures, or adhesions (scar tissue) from previous surgeries can physically block the duodenum.
4. Neuromuscular disorders: Conditions like progressive systemic sclerosis or amyloidosis that affect the neuromuscular function of the intestines can lead to duodenal obstruction.
Symptoms of duodenal obstruction may include nausea, vomiting (often with bilious or fecal matter), abdominal pain, distention, and decreased bowel movements. Diagnosis typically involves imaging studies such as X-rays, CT scans, or upper gastrointestinal series to visualize the blockage. Treatment depends on the underlying cause but may involve surgery, endoscopic procedures, or medications to manage symptoms and address the obstruction.
Biliary atresia is a rare, progressive neonatal liver disease characterized by the inflammatory obliteration of the extrahepatic bile ducts, leading to cholestasis, fibrosis, and cirrhosis if left untreated.
Biliary atresia is a rare, progressive liver disease in infants and children, characterized by the inflammation, fibrosis, and obstruction of the bile ducts. This results in the impaired flow of bile from the liver to the intestine, leading to cholestasis (accumulation of bile in the liver), jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), and eventually liver cirrhosis and failure if left untreated.
The exact cause of biliary atresia is not known, but it is believed to be a combination of genetic and environmental factors. It can occur as an isolated condition or in association with other congenital anomalies. The diagnosis of biliary atresia is typically made through imaging studies, such as ultrasound and cholangiography, and confirmed by liver biopsy.
The standard treatment for biliary atresia is a surgical procedure called the Kasai portoenterostomy, which aims to restore bile flow from the liver to the intestine. In this procedure, the damaged bile ducts are removed and replaced with a loop of intestine that is connected directly to the liver. The success of the Kasai procedure depends on several factors, including the age at diagnosis and surgery, the extent of liver damage, and the skill and experience of the surgeon.
Despite successful Kasai surgery, many children with biliary atresia will eventually develop cirrhosis and require liver transplantation. The prognosis for children with biliary atresia has improved significantly over the past few decades due to earlier diagnosis, advances in surgical techniques, and better postoperative care. However, it remains a challenging condition that requires close monitoring and multidisciplinary management by pediatric hepatologists, surgeons, and other healthcare professionals.
Esophageal atresia is a congenital condition characterized by an abnormal development of the esophagus, resulting in a discontinuity between its proximal and distal segments, which prevents the normal passage of swallowed food from the mouth to the stomach.
Esophageal atresia is a congenital condition in which the esophagus, the tube that connects the throat to the stomach, does not develop properly. In most cases, the upper esophagus ends in a pouch instead of connecting to the lower esophagus and stomach. This condition prevents food and liquids from reaching the stomach, leading to difficulty swallowing and feeding problems in newborn infants. Esophageal atresia often occurs together with a congenital defect called tracheoesophageal fistula, in which there is an abnormal connection between the esophagus and the windpipe (trachea).
The medical definition of 'Esophageal Atresia' is:
A congenital anomaly characterized by the absence of a normal connection between the upper esophagus and the stomach, resulting in the separation of the proximal and distal esophageal segments. The proximal segment usually ends in a blind pouch, while the distal segment may communicate with the trachea through a tracheoesophageal fistula. Esophageal atresia is often associated with other congenital anomalies and can cause serious complications if not diagnosed and treated promptly after birth.
"Encyclopedias, as a medical topic, refer to comprehensive and organized collections of information on various medical disciplines, theories, practices, diseases, treatments, and related health sciences, serving as extensive reference sources for medical professionals, students, researchers, and general public." (29 words)
An encyclopedia is a comprehensive reference work containing articles on various topics, usually arranged in alphabetical order. In the context of medicine, a medical encyclopedia is a collection of articles that provide information about a wide range of medical topics, including diseases and conditions, treatments, tests, procedures, and anatomy and physiology. Medical encyclopedias may be published in print or electronic formats and are often used as a starting point for researching medical topics. They can provide reliable and accurate information on medical subjects, making them useful resources for healthcare professionals, students, and patients alike. Some well-known examples of medical encyclopedias include the Merck Manual and the Stedman's Medical Dictionary.
Follicular atresia is a physiological process in the ovary where follicles, which contain oocytes, undergo degeneration and disappearance, reducing the number of available follicles for potential selection and ovulation over time.
Follicular atresia is a physiological process that occurs in the ovary, where follicles (fluid-filled sacs containing immature eggs or oocytes) undergo degeneration and disappearance. This process begins after the primordial follicle stage and continues throughout a woman's reproductive years. At birth, a female has approximately 1 to 2 million primordial follicles, but only about 400 of these will mature and release an egg during her lifetime. The rest undergo atresia, which is a natural process that helps regulate the number of available eggs and maintain hormonal balance within the body.
The exact mechanisms that trigger follicular atresia are not fully understood, but it is believed to be influenced by various factors such as hormonal imbalances, oxidative stress, and apoptosis (programmed cell death). In some cases, accelerated or excessive follicular atresia can lead to infertility or early menopause.
