Abstract

The use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, especially aspirin, has continued to increase with aging and related cardiovascular diseases. Since their well-known side effect is gastroduodenal mucosal injury, aspirin-induced intestinal damage has also become a growing problem. Herein, we present a case with an advanced anatomical impairment of the ileocecal valve deformation, presumably caused by enteric-coated acetyl salicylic acid induced recurrent ulcers.

Keywords

Asetil salisilik asit kullanımına bağlı oluşan ileoçekal valv ülserleri ve deformasyonu sonucunda gelişen çekumda çift lümen görünümü

Abstract

Günümüzde; non steroidal anti-inflamatuvar ilaçların, özellikle aspirinin kullanımı yaşlanma ve yaşlanmayla ilişkili kardiyovasküler hastalıkların sıklığındaki artışla birlikte giderek artmaktadır. Aspirinin; gastroduodenal mukozal hasar yapıcı etkisi gibi en iyi bilinen yan etkisinin yanında yine aspirin nedeniyle oluşan intestinal hasar da daha sık karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Burada muhtemelen enterik-kaplı asetil salisilik asit kullanımı nedeniyle oluşan rekürran ülserlere bağlı gelişen ileoçekal valv deformasyonlu olguyu sunuyoruz.

Keywords

Kolonoskopi, intestinal ülserler, enterik-kaplı asetil sali silik asit
