Abstract

BACKGROUND Lower gastrointestinal bleeding is a commun clinical entity. Although colonoscopic examination is the firsl choice lor diagnosis, it may not be enough to reveal the cause o( bleeding in all subjects. METHODS Eight patients who had massive lower gastrointestinal bleeding having normal colonoscopic findings were retrospectively evaluated al the Department of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, Istanbul University, Faculty of Medicine RESULTS There were 5 male and 3 female patients with mean age of 51 (28 to 82). Patients received a mean of 13 U (range 2 to 23) with transfused erythrocyte concentrates. Four patients had found to be normal during angiographic, scintigraphy or enterocylytic examinations. Angiography was diagnostic in 4 patients, and identified bleeding from ileocolic pseudoaneurisms (n= 2) branches of jejunal artery (n=2). Embolization procedure were performed in these 4 patients and 3 of them developed intestinal necrosis and underwent surgery. One did not require further treatment. Two of the patients who underwent surgery expired due to sepsis. Patients were hospitalized for a mean o( 17 days (range 5 to 37). CONCLUSION Despite employment of all diagnostic procedures, the cause of bleeding were not detected in half of patients who had normal colonoscopic findings. If angiographic treatment is necessary, superselective arterial embolization should be performed.

Özet

GiRiŞ Alt gastrointestinal sistem kanaması sık karşılaşılan bir klinik durumdur. Kolonoskopik inceleme teşhis için ilk tercih olmasına rağmen her zaman kanamanın nedenini göstermede yeterli olmayabilir. GEREÇ VE YÖNTEM İstanbul Üniversitesi İstanbul Tıp Fakültesi Acil Cerrahi Birimine başvuran, masif alt gastrointestinal kanaması olan ve kolonoskopik incelemede kanama odağı saptanamayan 8 hasta retrospektil olarak değerlendirildi. Tüm kolonoskopilerde kolon kan ile doluydu ve 4 hastada kan ileoçekal valfden çe-kuma dolmaktaydı (Treitz ile ileoçekal valf arası kanama ?). BULGULAR Hastalarımızın 5'i erkek, 3'ü kadındı. Ortalama yaş 51 'di (28 ila 82). Hastalara ortalama 13 ünite (2 ila 23) eritrosit süspansiyonu transfüzyonu yapıldı. Dört hastanın anjiyografik, sintigrafik ve enteroklizis incelemesi normaldi. Anjiyografi 4 hastamızda teşhis koydurucu oldu. İki hastada ileokolik psödoanevrizma, 2 hastada da jejunal arter dallarından kanama saplandı. Anjiyografik lanı konulan 4 hastaya embolizasyon işlemi gerçekleştirildi ve bunların 3'ünde bağırsak nekrozu gelişti ve cerrahi girişim uygulandı. Bir hastamıza ise ek bir tedavi gerekmedi. Cerrahi müdahale yapılan hastalardan ikisi sepsis nedeniyle kaybedildiler. Hastalarımızın ortalama yatış süresi ise 17 gün olarak saptandı (5 ila 37 gün). SONUÇ Bütün tanısal yöntemlere rağmen, kolonoskopide kanama odağı görülmeyen hastaların yarısında kanamanın nedeni bulunamamaktadır. İmkân varsa anjiyografik inceleme yapılmalı ve uygun vakalarda süperselektif arteriyel embolizasyon uygulanmalıdır. Ancak embolizasyon sonrası nekroz gelişme ihtimali nedeniyle hastalar yakın takip altında olmalıdır.
