Intestinal obstruction in pregnancy is rare. Symptoms are often unspecific and a high level of suspicion is essential for early diagnosis. Fetal and maternal mortality rates are higher during pregnancy due to delay in diagnosis.A 31-year-old primigravida with a history of abdominal surgery was admitted because of worsening abdominal pain, abdominal ...

The Small Bowel Enema in the Management of Small Bowel Obstruction

Australasian Radiology, 1983
ABSTRACTIn 16 patients with clinical evidence of bowel obstruction and complex medical histories the small bowel was radiologically studied using the intubation method. Clinically significant information which altered the management was obtained in 15 cases.

Trichobezoar with small bowel obstruction

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 1998
Trichobezoar is a rare clinical entity. Stomach is the common site of occurrence. Intestinal obstruction due to trichobezoar is extremely rare. We report a case of subacute bowel obstruction in a 7-year-old girl which required resection of the involved ileal segment and release of small bowel adhesions.

Small bowel obstruction

Surgical Endoscopy, 2000
This is a retrospective review of our experience using a laparoscopic approach in the treatment of acute and chronic small bowel obstruction (SBO).Of 136 patients hospitalized in our institutions for acute (94 cases: 69.1%) and chronic (42 cases: 30.8%) SBO, from January 1994 to March 1998, 63 (46.3%) were approached laparoscopically.

Small Bowel Obstructions in the Newborn

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1976
With current knowledge and skill, any infant with duodenal, jejunal, or ileal obstruction should be diagnosed soon after birth. In the absence of other congenital defects or complications, surgical correction should be successful in the vast majority of cases.

Laparoscopy in Small Bowel Obstruction

2016
Small bowel obstruction (SBO) due to adhesions is a common disease. Incidence, natural history, treatment approach, and preventability of SBO have very little changed over the years. Little progresses have been made in prevention and treatment until around 15 years ago. The introduction of the laparoscopic approach, the availability of more established

ACUTE OBSTRUCTION OF THE SMALL BOWEL

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1949
The physiologic and pathologic abnormalities caused by acute obstruction of the small bowel have been studied in many clinics and laboratories. The result has been a better understanding of the problem, but the mortality rate for these lesions is still high.

Obstruction of the Defunctionalized Small Bowel

Archives of Surgery, 1981
To the Editor.—The article by Aitken et al (Archives1980;115:1031-1036) on obstruction of the defunctionalized small bowel after jejunoileal bypass is interesting, in that six of the seven cases described had a Scott-type end-to-end jejunoileal anastomosis rather than an end-to-side Payne procedure.

Laparoscopic approach to small bowel obstruction

Seminars in Laparoscopic Surgery, 2002
Historically, laparotomy and open adhesiolysis have been the treatment of choice for patients requiring surgery with small bowel obstruction (SBO), although laparotomy itself is an independent risk factor for bowel obstruction. Laparoscopy is known to create fewer intra-abdominal adhesions than open laparotomy.

Endometriosis and small bowel obstruction.

Acta chirurgica Belgica, 1982
Pelvic endometriosis, a common disease of the female genital tract, may also affect the bowel, especially the rectosigmoid colon. Involvement of the small intestine occurs very infrequently. A case of small bowel obstruction caused by ileal endometriosis is reported. Correct preoperative diagnosis is very difficult to achieve.
