Perforated spontaneous intestinal intramural haematoma
Abstract:
Spontaneous intestinal intramural haematomas are uncommon in the absence of trauma and may occur in those on anticoagulation. A young girl presented with generalised abdominal pain and was found to have pneumoperitoneum. She underwent an exploratory laparotomy and was found to have multiple ileal intramural haematomata with an area of possible perforation with a collection of pus. We believe that this is the first reported case of a rupture of spontaneous intestinal intramural haematoma in a young girl with no history of anticoagulation use or coagulation disorders.

Inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD, encompasses a group of disorders characterized by chronic inflammation or ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract.
Risk Factors
The exact cause of IBD remains unclear, although it is believed to be due to a mix of genetic, environmental, microbial, and immune factors. Genetic factors are significant in determining susceptibility to IBD, with family history being a critical risk factor. Individuals with a first-degree relative who has IBD are at...
