Intestinal intussusception and occlusion caused by small bowel polyps in the Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. Management by combined intraoperative enteroscopy and resection through minimal enterostomy: case report.

UNLABELLED: The Peutz-Jeghers syndrome is a hereditary disease that requires frequent endoscopic and surgical intervention, leading to secondary complications such as short bowel syndrome. CASE REPORT: This paper reports on a 15-year-old male patient with a family history of the disease, who underwent surgery for treatment of an intestinal occlusion due to a small intestine intussusception. DISCUSSION: An intra-operative fiberscopic procedure was included for the detection and treatment of numerous polyps distributed along the small intestine. Enterotomy was performed to treat only the larger polyps, therefore limiting the intestinal resection to smaller segments. The postoperative follow-up was uneventful. CONCLUSION: We point out the importance of conservative treatment for patients with this syndrome, especially those who will undergo repeated surgical interventions because of clinical manifestation while they are still young.

[The role of enterostomy in the management of colonic injuries].

The circumstances, evaluation and results of the management of 67 colonic and rectal injuries during the period 1992-2003 in Clinical Centre of Podgorica are presented. In 32 war and 37 civilian injuries to colon, several systems of the severity trauma determination, as well as systems of grading and classification of injuries of colon were evaluated, and the surgical access according to achieved results was investigated in order to determine the use of enetrostomy in the management of these inuries. From the presented and statistically evaluated results, it can be concluded that Flintzs 3 grade classification can be used as the most reliable indicative and prognostic system. For the succes of One stage surgical procedure, the most critical fact is differentiation between Flintzs Grade I and II (Chi Square 4.514; P) as well between Grade II and III. That means that by using One stage procedure, unfavourable results may be expected not only in Grade II, but as well in border cases between II and III. Also, according to the presented results, there were not differences observed in the success of management between Grade II and III (Chi Square 0.678; P0.05). That means that using Two stage procedure, unfavourable results can be prevented not only in the borderline cases between Grades II and III, but also in the Grade III. Two stage surgical approach in the repair of injuried colon remains valuable and usefull surgical procedure, even in spite of success of surgical technology and operative technique, in cases with severe and multiple abdminal injuries, and in borderline decision making. These procedures are also inevitable in the management of any complication of primary repair of the colonic wound. Using rational evaluation and good surgical techniqe, primary repair of can be used in almost 50% of civilian and war injuries injuries of colon.
