Neumatosis quística intestinal: reporte de un caso

Abstract: Pneumatosis cystoides intestinalis has an unknown etiology, although in a high percentage of patients it has been associated with obstructive pulmonary pathologies, connective tissue diseases, immunosuppression or gastrointestinal diseases. It is located more frequently in the colon and small intestine. It is diagnosed mainly through imaging tests (radiography or computed tomography). The treatment is conservative, performing surgical intervention if there is suspicion of intestinal necrosis; being difficult t… Show more

“…2 Approximately 85% of cases the etiology is identified, being the pulmonary causes, increased intraluminal pressure, bacterial gas production and inflammatory bowel disease, however, in 15% the etiology is not identified, so it is classified as idiopathic intestinal cystic pneumatosis. [3][4] The most frequent location of this entity is the colon (61.8%), followed by the small bowel (15.4%) and in the same way the cysts that contain gas are located more frequently in the submucosa (Up to 69.9%). 5 The most frequent symptoms in this pathology are abdominal pain, diarrhea, digestive tract bleeding, constipation, rectal tenesmus and weight loss, despite that none of these symptoms are specific, such as in the case of our patient who presented abdominal pain.…”

“…2,3 En 85% de los casos se define como neumatosis intestinal secundaria, debido a que se halla asociado con otras enfermedades, tales como la inmunosupresión, enfermedades gastrointestinales, enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal (EII), enterocolitis, enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva, del tejido conectivo, infecciones por Clostridium difficile y, más comúnmente, con isquemia. [1][2][3]6 El 15% de los casos restantes Mujer de 55 años, quien acudió por dolor de siete días de evolución en el flanco y la fosa iliaca izquierda, el cual aumentó en forma gradual. Negó fiebre, náusea, vómito o alguna otra sintomatología.…”

“…www.medigraphic.org.mx son de causa idiopática y se conocen como neumatosis intestinal primaria. 6 La hipótesis más aceptada acerca de su fisiopatología es la teoría mecánica, la cual expone que existe paso de aire a través de la mucosa intestinal dañada, secundaria al aumento de presión intraluminal. Dicha teoría apoya la relación de la neumatosis intestinal con patologías que alteran la integridad de la mucosa, como la isquemia.…”
