Enteral Nutrition II: Nasointestinal and Gastrostomy Feeding

1.1K
Enteral nutrition encompasses various methods of delivering nutrition directly to the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, bypassing traditional oral intake. It is particularly beneficial for patients who cannot eat by mouth but have a functioning digestive system. Key methods include nasointestinal feeding, gastrostomy, and jejunostomy, each suited to different clinical scenarios based on the patient's needs and condition.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease V: Surgical Management

702
Surgical interventions for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, are essential in managing symptoms and addressing complications. The selection of surgical procedures is contingent upon the specific conditions and complications that stem from these illnesses.
Here are some common surgical interventions for IBD:

Esophageal Perforation-I: Introduction01:22

Esophageal Perforation-I: Introduction

634
Esophageal perforation is a severe medical condition characterized by a breach in the integrity of the esophageal wall. This breach can occur due to various factors such as trauma, medical procedures, or underlying diseases. When the esophageal wall is compromised, it allows food, fluids, and digestive juices into the chest cavity or adjacent structures, leading to potential complications and health risks.
The location of esophageal perforation can vary, occurring anywhere along the esophagus....

Esophageal Strictures-I: Introduction01:30

Esophageal Strictures-I: Introduction

927
Esophageal strictures involve abnormal narrowing or tightening of the esophagus. They vary in length and severity, ranging from mild constriction to complete obstruction, and are classified as benign (noncancerous) or malignant (cancerous).
Etiology
The primary cause of esophageal strictures is long-standing gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), accounting for about 70 to 80% of adult cases. Chronic acid reflux can lead to injury and scarring of the esophageal lining, culminating in...

Esophageal Perforation-II: Clinical Manifestations and Management

761
Esophageal perforations manifest in various clinical forms, influenced by factors such as the perforation's cause and location (cervical, intrathoracic, or intra-abdominal), the extent of contamination, and potential injury to adjacent mediastinal structures. The timing between the perforation occurrence and treatment initiation also affects the clinical presentation.
Clinical Manifestations:

Esophageal Strictures-II: Clinical Features and Management

718
Patients with esophageal strictures often experience a range of symptoms. Initially, they may have difficulty swallowing solid foods, which can progress to include liquids. Additional symptoms may involve chest pain or discomfort, regurgitating food and fluids, heartburn, unintentional weight loss, coughing or choking during meals, and hoarseness.
Healthcare providers should gather a comprehensive medical history and conduct a physical examination for diagnosis. If esophageal stricture is...

Summary

Jejunojejunal intussusception, a rare jejunostomy complication, was successfully diagnosed preoperatively using imaging. Surgical reduction resolved the intussusception, allowing continued jejunostomy feeding and an uneventful recovery.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Surgical Complications

Background:

  • Jejunojejunal intussusception is a rare complication following jejunostomy.
  • Preoperative diagnosis and surgical management of this condition are not well-documented.

Observation:

  • A 78-year-old male developed intussusception after a perforated duodenal ulcer repair and Witzel jejunostomy.
  • Postoperative ileus was noted, with imaging revealing small bowel distension and contrast retention.

Findings:

  • Water-soluble contrast studies showed proximal jejunal dilation and normal distal small bowel.
  • Abdominal sonography revealed a target sign and the feeding tube within the jejunum.
  • Computed tomography confirmed jejunojejunal intussusception.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the utility of advanced imaging (ultrasound and CT) for diagnosing jejunojejunal intussusception.
  • Successful surgical reduction and continued jejunostomy feeding demonstrate a viable treatment approach for this rare complication.
