Abstract

Bowel perforation is an emergency problem, it presents as an acute abdomen. Computurize tomography (CT) is important imaging modality used to evaluate patients with acute abdomen. CT shows anatomical detail and intestinal wall, evaluating secondary signs of bowel disease within the surrounding mesentery and detecting even small amounts of extraluminal air or oral contrast leakage into the peritoneal cavity. The aim of this article is to illustrate acute abdominal CT findings due to FOLFIRI therapy of a patient with colorectal cancer. Interestingly, this patient was an emergency case based on radiologic findings, but he felt good, had no emergency problem clinically.

Özet

Bağırsak perforasyonu, akut batını işaret eden tehlikeli bir problemdir. Bilgisayarlı tomografi (BT), akut batını olan hastaları değerlendirmede kullanılan önemli bir metoddur. BT, anotomik detayları ve bağırsak duvarını göstermekte, çevre mezenterde bağırsak hastalığı ile ilgili ikincil işaretleri değerlendirmekte ve peritonel kavitede oral kontrast sızıntıları ya da az miktarda ekstraluminal havayı saptamaktadır. Bu makalenin amacı, kolorektal kanserli hastada FOLFIRI tedavisine bağlı olarak akut batının BT bulgularını açıklamaktır. İlginç olarak, bu hastanın radyolojik bulgularının aciliyeti olmasına rağmen, hasta kendini iyi hissetmekte ve klinik olarak acil bir problemi bulunmamaktadır.
