Abstract:
Background: Intestinal obstruction can progress to bowel gangrene, increasing morbidity and mortality. Early diagnosis and decision taking for intervention remains challenging. This study evaluated serum C-reactive protein (CRP) as a predictive marker for gangrene in intestinal obstruction. Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted on 110 patients with surgically managed intestinal obstruction at SMS Hospital, Jaipur. Serum CRP levels at admission were recorded and correlated with intraoperative findings. Statistical analysis included ROC curve for determining predictive value.

Abstract:
Gangrene of the intestines is a rare complication in pregnancy. Intestinal obstruction and ischemic bowel diseases are common causes of gangrene of the intestines in pregnancy. Adhesion bands can cause intestinal obstruction while arterial occlusion, venous thrombosis and vasculitis are some causes of ischemic bowel disease. We present a case of small intestinal gangrene in a 30 year old woman in her third pregnancy, diagnosed during emergency cesarean section with extensive gangrene of the ileum and jejunum caused by band formation at the illeo-caecal junction. This case, despite the unfortun

Abstract:
Intestinal obstruction during pregnancy is very rare. The mechanical intestinal obstruction was mostly due to adhesion from previous surgery. Pregnancy may mask the symptoms of intestinal obstruction, and virgin abdomen adds to the ambiguity of the diagnosis. The mortality and morbidity increased for the mother and the fetus in the presence of bowel gangrene. We present a case of intestinal obstruction at mid-term pregnancy with extensive small bowel gangrene which necessitates right hemicolectomy and ends with a good outcome for the mother and fetus.

Abstract:
One hundred and three patients with intestinal gangrene were managed in Ile-Ife, Nigeria over a 10-year period. The overall mortality in the series was 25.2%. Strangulated hernias were responsible for 65 cases (63%), intussusception 20.4%, adhesions 11.7% and volvulus 2.9%. Avoidable deaths resulted from anastomotic breakdown and inadequate preoperative fluid therapy. Primary intestinal resection and end-to-end anastomosis of large bowel involved in gangrene gave very good results. It was found to be quite safe and economical, and avoided the inconveniences and complications of a colostomy.

Introduction: Adult intussusception is a rare clinical entity in contrast to pediatric intussusception. Varied and non-specific clinical features, delayed presentation, and lack of awareness among attending surgeons to consider it as differential diagnosis complicates the clinical course of the disease. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in a tertiary care teaching hospital in north India. Nine adult patients who presented with intussusception over a period of six years were analyzed. Their clinical profile, management and underlying pathology were studied. Results: Five out of nine

Abstract:
Colonic volvulus is the third leading cause of large bowel obstruction. About 35% of these are located in the caecum. Though, relatively, a rare cause of obstruction, the incidence of caecal volvulus is steadily increasing at a rate of about 5% per year. Mortality due to caecal volvulus may be as high as 40% especially in the presence of gangrene and sepsis. Clinical presentation may be acute and fulminant or as a mobile caecum syndrome with intermittent abdominal pain. “Whirl,” “Coffee bean,” and “bird beak” signs seen on computed tomography are pathognomonic.

A wide range of vascular disorders and vasculitides may affect the gastrointestinal tract. Most are quite uncommon, but presentations are often dramatic with intestinal bleeding or gangrene. Intestinal ischaemia is most commonly due to atherosclerosis or thrombosis causing arterial or venous mesenteric vascular occlusion. There are four primary syndromes. (1) Ischaemic colitis—presents with abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and tenderness followed by passage of loose bloody stool. Supportive management is usually sufficient, but a key challenge is early identification of patients with severe i

Abstract:
Abstract Ischaemic colitis is the most common form of intestinal ischaemia. It occurs most often at watershed areas of the colon due to a low-flow state. The gold-standard imaging modality for diagnosis of ischaemic colitis is computerized tomography (CT), along with endoscopy to confirm the radiographic findings. Most patients recover with non-operative management with fluid resuscitation, bowel rest, and antibiotics. Surgical intervention is reserved for progression to full-thickness ischaemia, gangrene, perforation, or failure to improve with non-operative management. Overall mortality is a

A wide range of vascular and collagen disorders may affect the gastro-intestinal tract. Most are quite uncommon but presentations are often dramatic with intestinal bleeding or gangrene. Vascular insufficiency leading to ischaemic damage of the gut may be caused by occlusion of mesenteric vessels by either arterial thrombosis (usually with atheromatous pathology); or venous thrombosis (in thrombophilic conditions); or arterial emboli (as occurs with atrial fibrillation); or diffuse small vessel occlusion.

Abstract:
O volvo intestinal (VI) é uma condição rara caracterizada pela torção de uma alça do intestino sobre si mesma ou seu mesentério, causando obstrução e, em casos graves, isquemia e necrose. Pode resultar de má rotação congênita em neonatos ou aderências em adultos, associadas a inflamações, cirurgias prévias ou tumores. Fatores de risco incluem uso crônico de laxantes, dieta rica em resíduos, doença de Chagas, comorbidades neurológicas, sexo feminino e idade avançada. A fisiopatologia envolve o estrangulamento intestinal, mais comum no cólon sigmoide, levando à obstrução, hipoperfusão e acúmulo
