Abstract

İntestinal tüberkülozis, gastrointestinal sistemin tüberküloz basili ile enfekte olma halidir. En sık tutulan bölge ileoçekal alandır. Tutulum yerlerinin benzer olması Crohn hastalığı ile dikkatli bir şekilde ayırıcı tanısının yapılmasını gerektirir. İntestinal tüberküloz klinikte sıklıkla non-spesifik şikayetlerle kendini belli eder. Kanama bu hastalarda sıklıkla kronik seyirlidir. Masif kanama literatürde çok nadir olarak bildirilmiştir. Biz burada cerrahi barsak rezeksiyonu ile hemostazın sağlanabildiği intestinal tüberkülozlu hastamızı sunduk.

A Rare Cause of Massive Lower Gastrointestyinal System Bleeding: Intestinal Tuberculosis

Abstract

Intestinal tuberculosis is the infection of the gastrointestinal tract by tuberculosis bacilli. The most commonly affected area is the ileocecal region. A careful differential diagnosis between Crohn’s disease and intestinal tuberculosis is required because similar areas are involved in both these diseases. Intestinal tuberculosis often presents non-specific complaints in the clinic. Chronic bleeding is often observed in these patients. However, massive bleeding has been reported very rarely in the literature. Herein, we present a patient with intestinal tuberculosis for whom hemostasis was achieved by surgical bowel resection.
