Abstract

BACKGROUND: Adult intussusception is an unusual entity, and its etiology differs from that in pediatric patients. The purpose of this study was to determine the causes and management of intussusception in adults. METHODS: A retrospective review of patients with a diagnosis of gastrointestinal intussusception between 1986 and 2006 was conducted. All patients under the age of 18 and cases with rectal, ostomy, or gastroenterostomy prolapse were excluded. RESULTS: There were 28 cases of adult intussusception. Mean age was 38.6±16.7 years. A preoperative diagnosis of intussusception was made in 53.5% of the cases. There were 23 enteric, three colonic and two ileocolic intussusceptions. A lead point was identified in 25 patients (89.3%). Invagination was due to benign causes in 19 patients, malignant causes in six patients and idiopathic in three patients. Complication was seen in three (10.3%) cases. CONCLUSION: In this series, the mean age of the patients was younger than in the literature. Since intussusception was due to small bowel pathologies, the proportion of benign/malignant lesions favored benign lesions. Although it is encountered rarely in adults, physicians should be aware of invagination and consider it in each case of acute abdomen because of the wide spectrum of the clinical settings.

Özet

AMAÇ: Erişkinlerde invajinasyon nadir görülen bir klinik durumdur, çocuk olgulardan etyolojik farklılıklar gösterir. Çalışmamızda, erişkinlerde saptanan invajinasyon nedenlerinin tanımlanması ve tedavi özeliklerinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı. GEREÇ-YÖNTEM: 1986 ile 2006 yılları arasında invajinasyon tanısı alan olgular geriye dönük olarak değerlendirildi. Tüm olgular 18 yaşın üzerinde olup; rektal, gastroenterostomiye bağlı ve stomal prolapsusu olan olgular çalışma dışı tutuldu. BULGULAR: Toplam 28 invajinasyon olgusu belirlendi; ortalama yaş 38,6±16,7 idi. Ameliyat öncesi tanı olguların %53,5’ünde gerçekleştirildi. Olguların 23’ünde ince bağırsak, üçünde kolon, ikisinde ise ileokolik invajinasyon saptandı. İnvajinasyon nedeni 25 (%89,3) olguda belirlendi. İnvajinasyon nedenleri 19 olguda selim, altı olguda habis ve üç olguda ise idyopatikti. Ameliyat sonrası üç (%10,3) olguda komplikasyon görüldü. SONUÇ: Bu serideki yaş ortalaması literatür verilerinden daha düşük bulundu. Sıklıkla ince bağırsak invajinasyonlarına rastlanırken, selim/habis oranında, selim ağırlıkta idi. Erişkinde görülen invajinasyon nadir görülmesine karşın, geniş bir etyolojik açılımı ve değişken klinik tablosu nedeniyle, özellikle akut karın tablosuyla karşılaşan her hekim için ayırıcı tanıda göz önünde bulundurulması gereken bir durumdur.
