Acute small bowel obstruction caused by phytobezoar Meckel diverticula
Introduction. Meckel diverticulum-is a residue of not completely reduced yolk duct. Among the occurring complications of Meckel’s cuticle in the adult population, acute intestinal obstruction prevails. In this case, the most common intussusception and inversion of the intestines. The occurrence of small bowel obstruction due to phytobesoar in the Meckel diverticulum is a rare condition and has been described in the literature in isolated cases. Materials and methods. The patient of 29 years entered the surgical Department with complaints of abdominal pain of a permanent nature, violation of the discharge of stool and gases, vomiting up to 4 times. Sick for about 2 days. Fluoroscopy of the abdomen showed multiple arches with small bowel fluid levels, single bowl kloybera. The man was operated on urgently with a diagnosis of acute mechanical small bowel obstruction. Results. During the operation, Meckel’s phytobezoar diverticula was detected, which caused acute small bowel obstruction, for which the fragmentation of the bezoar was performed with its relegation to the cecum. The postoperative period proceeded without complications, the patient was discharged on the 10th day after surgery. After 6 weeks, the patient underwent laparoscopic diverticulectomy as planned. Discharged for 5 days. Conclusion. A clinical case of treatment of a patient with phytobezoar Meckel diverticulum complicated by acute mechanical small bowel obstruction is presented. The use of delayed diverticulectomy can reduce the risk of anastomosis failure in acute intestinal obstruction, and if proper diet is observed, it reduces the risk of recurrent intestinal obstruction before re-planned hospitalization.
