Study Notes
Surgical Pathology of the Small Bowel
- Divided into duodenum, jejunum, and ileum, 4-7 meters long.
- Attached to the rear wall by mesentery (15-18 cm).
- Contains blood vessels like the superior mesenteric artery and vein.
Paraclinical Exploration
- Radiologic: Barium exams, hypotonic duodenography for duodenal visualization.
- Enteroclazis: Contrast infusion to detect tumors or bleeding.
- CT & PET: Detect tumors and metastasis.
- Endoscopy: Examines small intestine, no biopsy.
- Arteriography: For intestinal bleeding.
- Ultrasound & NMR: Diagnostic tools, less common for small bowel.
- Laparoscopy: Surgical diagnostic tool.
Small Bowel Diverticula
- Small pouch-like wall extensions; congenital (young) or acquired (older).
- Caused by increased intraluminal pressure.
Meckel's Diverticulum
- Embryonic remnant in the ileum, often asymptomatic.
- Complications: pain, hemorrhage, inflammation, obstruction.
Crohn's Disease
- Granulomatous inflammation, often in the terminal ileum.
- Epidemiology: Most common small bowel disorder, affects young adults.
- Complications: Occlusion, perforation, abscess, fistulas.
- Treatment: Symptomatic treatment, surgery for complications.
- Prognosis: Poor due to complications.
Intestinal Tuberculosis
- Caused by tuberculous infection, common in immunocompromised.
- Signs: Weight loss, fever, diarrhea.
- Treatment: Tuberculostatic drugs, surgery for complications.
Small Bowel Tumors
- Benign: Adenomas, leiomyomas, fibroids, lipomas.
- Malignant: Adenocarcinomas, lymphomas, sarcomas.
- Carcinoid tumors: Neuroendocrine, release serotonin, cause carcinoid syndrome.
- Diagnosis: Imaging, endoscopy, biopsy.
- Treatment: Surgery, chemotherapy for advanced cases.
Prognosis
- Early detection improves prognosis; complications lead to worse outcomes.
