Abstract:
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs induced diaphragm like lesions are a rare cause of small intestinal obstruction. They occur most commonly in elderly patients who have been consuming these drugs for prolonged periods for pain relief. We report the first case of ileal diaphragm disease from Asia. She responded well to localised resection of the diseased ileum. Intra-operative enteroscopy may be helpful in deciding the extent of intestinal resection.
