Background: Obstruction of the bowel is one most common problems intra-abdominally seen by surgeons in their practice. The reasons associated with these obstructions are biochemical disturbances correlated to adhesion, neoplasms, and/or hernia. either large intestine or small remains major cause mortality and morbidity. Methods: study included a total 48 subjects having intestinal obstruction w...

gastrointestinal (gi) bleeding in pediatric patients has several causes. vascular malformation of the small bowel is a rare disease leading to pediatric gi bleeding. to our knowledge, few reports describe ultrasound and computed tomography findings of venous malformations involving the small bowel. we present a case of long-segmental and circumferential vascular malformation that led to gi blee...

this is a case of a patient with bowel obstruction , imaging studies were suggestive for pneumatosis intestinalis. clinically diagnosed as adhesion band and pnematosis intestinalis. she underwent laparatomy, enterolysis, obstructionolysis and enterorrhaphy. the patient developed respiratory distress and expired after 2 days. at autopsy we found gray-brown discoloration in the wall of some part ...

Robertson and Seymour proved Wagner’s famous Conjecture and showed that every minor ideal has a polynomial time decision algorithm. The algorithm uses the obstructions of the minor ideal. By Robertson and Seymour’s proof we know that there are only finitely many such obstructions. Nevertheless, the proof is non-constructive and for many minor ideals we do not know the obstructions. Since the 19...

AbsractWe are presenting a case of abdominal tuberculosis who had peritonitis and twolarge enteroliths were removed from the small intestine during laparotomy. Followinga full course of medical treatment, she developed small bowel obstruction andtreated by laparotomy & enterolysis but showed no evidence of stricture. We had adiagnostic and management challenge which will be discussed along with...
