Successful medical management of tuberculous broncho-oesophageal fistula.

Project description:Broncho-oesophageal fistula (BEF) of benign aetiology is rare. BEF is a rare complication of intrathoracic involvement with tuberculosis. A high index of suspicion and appropriate investigations can lead to achieving an early diagnosis following which appropriate management can be timely instituted. Surgery can be avoided if the condition is recognised in early stages. We present a case of a young female patient with tubercular mediastinal lymphadenopathy complicated by left broncho-oesophageal fistulisation. Timely initiation of conservative medical management was followed by an uneventful recovery.

Congenital duodenal web: successful management with endoscopic dilatation.

Project description:Congenital duodenal web (CDW) is an uncommon cause of duodenal obstruction and endoscopic balloon dilatation has been reported in just eight pediatric cases to date. Here we are reporting three cases of CDW managed successfully with balloon dilatation.In 2014 we diagnosed three cases of CDW on the basis of typical radiological and endoscopic findings. Endoscopic balloon dilatation was done under conscious sedation with a through-the-scope controlled radial expansion (CRE) balloon.All three children presented late (median age 8 [range 2 - 9] years) with bilious vomiting, upper abdominal distension, and failure to thrive. One of them had associated Down syndrome and another had horseshoe kidney. In all cases, CDW was observed in the second part of the duodenum beyond the ampulla, causing partial duodenal obstruction. After repeated endoscopic dilatation (2 - 4 sessions), all three patients became asymptomatic. None of the patients experienced complications after balloon dilatation.Duodenal diaphragm should be suspected in patients with abdominal distension with bilious vomiting, even in relatively older children. Endoscopic balloon dilatation is a simple and effective method of treating this condition.

The successful management for long-term intractable enteroatmospheric fistula: A case report.

Project description:IntroductionEfficacy of open abdomen management with negative pressure wound therapy for enteroatmospheric fistula has been performed. But, few reports have shown its utility for enteroatmospheric fistula several years after onset.Presentation of caseA 46 year-old woman underwent total colectomy due to total ulcerative colitis in her twenties. Three years before the onset of enteroatmospheric fistula, she underwent simple total hysterectomy for uterine smooth muscle tumor. Small bowel obstruction occurred early and a small bowel bypass was performed. However, she had sudden abdominal pain and was diagnosed with anastomotic leakage of small bowel bypass. Although antibiotic treatment was initiated, infection was difficult to control, and a midline abdominal incision was performed, followed by the formation of enteroatmospheric fistula. She declined early surgical intervention and started receiving home parenteral nutrition with antibiotic treatment. Although central vein management was continued, catheter infection became frequent. Hence, surgical intervention was planned 30 months after the formation of enteroatmospheric fistula. Two-stage abdominal wall reconstruction using open abdomen management with negative pressure wound therapy was planned. The definitive abdominal wall reconstruction was performed 14 days after the initial operation. Finally, she was discharged without reoperation.DiscussionEnteroatmospheric fistula has no overlying soft tissue and no real fistula tract. Besides these complications, there were complications of the scarred abdominal wall from intestinal fluid exposure for 30 months.ConclusionThe strategy using open abdomen management with negative pressure wound therapy for long-term enteroatmospheric fistula will have a good postoperative outcome with the same as early intervention.

Endoscopic management of pancreaticopleural fistula in a pediatric patient: A case report and literature review.

Project description:IntroductionPancreaticopleural fistula (PPF) is a rare but serious complication of pancreatic disorders. As the clinical presentations of PPF are often deceptive, it can cause a delay in the timely diagnosis and proper treatment. PPF is extremely uncommon in pediatric patients, and diagnostic and management strategies for PPF among pediatric patients are scanty.Patient concernsA 12-year-old girl presented with cough and dyspnea owing to massive right-side pleural effusion confirmed by Chest X-ray. Biochemical examination of pleural effusion revealed a significant elevation of amylase level. Imaging modalities showed dilated pancreatic duct and fistulous tract connecting pancreatic duct and right thorax.DiagnosisChronic pancreatitis with PPF was diagnosed.InterventionsMedical therapy was initially attempted for 2 weeks. Endoscopic therapy with naso-pancreatic drainage tube placement was then performed without any complications after failed medical therapy.OutcomesThe patient has remained healthy and symptom-free during 2 years of follow-up.ConclusionWhen pediatric patients presented with recurrent pleural effusion with unknown etiology, PPF should be taken into consideration. Pleural effusion amylase level is the most important laboratory test and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography is recommended to visualize the fistula. Optimal management of PPF should be based on pancreatic duct morphology.
