Abstract
|
|
|
Segmental necrotizing jejunitis is characterized by severe abdominal pain of acute
onset, bilious vomitings and foul smelling loose stools containing blood. Pathologic
features include circumferential intestinal wall inflammation ranging .from edema with
minimal congestion to severe congestion, hemorrhage with necrosis, ulceration, and
gangrene with perforation. Early diagnosis and suitable supportive measures prevent
unnecessary laparatomy and complications. There was no report of this disease entity in
children in Korea. We experienced a case of segmental necrotizing jejunitis with fever,
abdominal pain and bloody stools, which was diagnosed by exploration and was treated
successfully by antibiotics and supportive measures.
