Abstract

Background/aims: Spontaneous intestinal hematoma is a rare complication of anticoagulant therapy, and small bowel obstruction caused by intramural hematoma secondary to anticoagulant therapy is even rarer. The first symptom is usually abdominal pain, frequently accompanied by nausea and vomiting. A history of anticoagulant use with prolonged international normalized ratios in patients presenting with abdominal pain should alert physicians to search for this entity. Typical findings on abdominal computed tomography yield the diagnosis. Early diagnosis is crucial because most patients are treated non-operatively with a good outcome. Herein, we present the non-enhanced and enhanced computed tomography findings of two cases who were admitted to the emergency clinic with acute abdominal pain and diagnosed as spontaneous intramural ileal hematomas and partial small bowel obstruction secondary to intramural ileal hemorrhage.

Özet

Spontan intestinal hematom, antikoagülan tedavinin nadir bir komplikasyonu olup, intramural hematoma bağlı olarak gelişen ince barsak tıkanıklığı daha da nadir olarak karşılaşılan bir durumdur. Genellikle ilk semptom karın ağrısı olup, buna bulantı ve kusma sıklıkla eşlik eder. Karın ağrısı ile başvuran bir hastada antikoagülan kullanım öyküsü ile birlikte uluslararası normalize oranların uzaması varsa mutlaka uyarıcı olmalı ve araştırılmalıdır. Abdominal bilgisayarlı tomografideki tipik bulgular tanı koydurucudur. Erken tanı, hastaların çoğunda ameliyat gerektirmeden tedaviye iyi yanıt alınmasını sağlayabileceğinden çok önemlidir. Bu yazıda, akut karın ağrısı ile acil servise başvuran, ileal intramural hematom ve buna bağlı parsiyel ince barsak obstruksiyonu tanısı alan iki olguya ait kontrastsız ve kontrastlı bilgisayarlı tomografi bulguları sunulmaktadır.
