Abstract

Colonoscopy, which is routinely performed in diagnosis and treatment of colorectal disorders, is a reliable procedure. Its most frequent complications are bleeding and perforation. Splenic rupture is a very rarely met complication of colonoscopy, and delay in its diagnosis leads to increased morbidity and mortality. We presented a 69 years old female patient, who was diagnosed by computerized abdominal tomography, performed for her abdominal pain, which started following the colonoscopy. After 15 days of medical treatment and follow-up, laparoscopic splenectomy was performed one month after her colonoscopy. The patient was discharged on her 4th postoperative day, with uneventful recovery. In patients who have complaint of abdominal pain following colonoscopy, an intraabdominal pathological condition should be considered and computerized abdominal tomography should be performed. If there is no detected intraperitoneal bleeding, in other words, if there is a sub-capsular hematoma of the spleen, medical management by monitoring the vital signs may be preferred. Then, splenectomy should be performed at an appropriate time.

Özet

Kolonoskopi kolorektal hastalıkların tanı ve tedavisinde rutin olarak yapılan güvenilir bir işlemdir. En sık görülen komplikasyonlar kanama ve perforasyondur. Dalak rüptürü ise oldukça nadir görülen bir durumdur. Tanıda gecikme morbidite ve mortalitiye artırır. Biz 69 yaşında bir bayan hastayı sunduk. Kolonoskopi sonrası başlayan karın ağrısı şikayeti olan hastaya çekilen batın tomografisi ile tanı konuldu. On beş gün süreyle medikal tedavi uygulanan ve takip edilen hastaya kolonoskopiden 1 ay sonra laparaskopik splenektomi yapıldı. Ameliyat sonrası bir patoloji olmayan hasta 4. gün taburcu edildi. Kolonoskopi sonrası karın ağrısı oluşan hastalarda batın içi bir patoloji olabileceği düşünülerek batın tomografisi yapılmalı. Eğer periton içi bir kanama yoksa yani dalakta subkapsüler bir hematom var ise vital bulgu takibi ile medikal tedavi yapılabilir. Daha sonra hastaya uygun zamanda splenektomi yapılmalıdır.
