    Background:

    • Intestinal pneumatosis is a rare radiographic finding.
    • It is often associated with significant underlying pathology.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To determine the incidence and clinical significance of intestinal pneumatosis.
    • To evaluate the association of intestinal pneumatosis with other medical conditions and outcomes.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 1,477 plain abdominal X-ray films.
    • Identification of cases with intestinal pneumatosis.
    • Analysis of associated clinical conditions and mortality.

    Main Results:

    • Fourteen cases of intestinal pneumatosis were identified.

  • The condition was frequently associated with septicemia, gastroenteritis, and paralytic ileus.
  • A high mortality rate was observed in patients with intestinal pneumatosis.

    • Conclusions:

    • Intestinal pneumatosis on abdominal X-ray is a marker of severe disease.
    • Management should focus on the primary underlying conditions, such as septicemia, gastroenteritis, and paralytic ileus.
    • Early recognition and treatment of associated conditions are vital for improving patient outcomes.
