Small bowel ischemia and infarction! Intestinal ischemia occur when blood flow to the bowel or gastrointestinal system (intestines) is decreased because of a blood vessel blockage. The three major...
The hernial orifice at the mesointestine was sutured to prevent recurrence of bowel herniation. On the third postoperative day an urgent cesarean section was performed because of the onset of heavy vaginal bleeding subsequent to placental separation. Conclusions: Internal hernia should be included in...
Small bowel ischemia caused by spontaneous ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt knot formation is a rare complication in the pediatric population. Clinical presentation may range from symptoms of malformation to bowel obstruction with and without gangrene. We report the surgical management of spontaneous VP ...

To retrospectively evaluate the diagnostic performance of computed tomography (CT) for detection of small-bowel ischemia in emergency department patients with abdominal pain and to compare the prospective interpretation with a retrospective interpretation by using surgical or pathologic findings as the referen...
In laparotomy, a cyst was found with large size around the small intestine which caused mesenteric ischemia and changed the color of the small bowel to an ischemic view. The resected cyst was sent and confirmed by the pathology as lymphangiomatosis. MCL is a rare cause of obstruction, which...
EFFECTS OF ISCHEMIA AND VITAMIN E DEFICIENCY ON SMALL BOWEL LIPID PEROXIDATION AND MUCOSAL ENZYMESPediatric Research publishes original papers, invited reviews, and commentaries on the etiologies of diseases of children and disorders of development, extending from molecular biology to epidemiology. Use of...
bowel ischemia has been evaluated in only a few cases.5,13,15A syndrome of diarrhea, hypoproteinemia, and malabsorption has been observed in these cases, but this needs further documentation. Second, limited lesions in which mucosal integrity is impaired are difficult to diagnose if the bowel ...
The causes are not entirely understood; necrotizing enterocolitis is thought to occur due to an underdeveloped immune system.[32] Intussusception It occurs when the proximal portion of the small bowel telescopes into the distal portion, leading to obstruction and bowel ischemia.[33] ...
