Abstract

Background and Aims:Intestinal Behcet’s disease may cause serious complications, including massive hemorrhage, fistulisation and intestinal perforation, which are encountered in approximately 50% of patients. Currently, there is little data on iatrogenic ileocolonic perforation during colonoscopy in patients with intestinal Behcet’s disease; therefore, our aim is to perform a retrospective review of records of intestinal Behcet’s disease patients who suffered perforation during or after colonoscopy. Materials and Methods: A total of 2615 colonoscopic examinations were performed between May 2002 and December 2007. The main indication for colonoscopy was intestinal Behcet’s disease in 135 of the 2615 patients. Results:135 patients with Behcet’s disease were evaluated by colonoscopy due to presumed ileocolonic involvement. Eight out of 135 (5.9%) patients had ileal and colonic ulcers. 3 patients (2.22%) had iatrogenic perforation; 2 of whom had profound ulcers in proximal colon and ileum. The third case had ulcers in the sigmoid, descending and transverse colon segments. All 3 patients had undergone surgical intervention that included ileal resection and right hemicolectomy. Conclusion:Colonoscopic examination is commonly used in Behcet’s disease not only for diagnostic purposes but also for surveillance of intestinal involvement. Volcano-shaped ulcers are especially prone to perforate. Both clinicians and endoscopists should be alert against barotrauma during colonoscopy since it may cause perforation. Patients should also be followed, and in case of abdominal pain after colonoscopic examination, colonic perforation should be considered.

Abstract

Giriş ve Amaç:İntestinal Behçet Hastalığı ciddi komplikasyonlara neden olabilir. Masif kanama, fistülizasyon ve intestinal perforasyon, intestinal Behçet Hastalığı olanların yaklaşık %50’sinde rastlanan komplikasyonlardır. İntestinal Behçet tanısı alanlarda, kolonoskopi sırasındaki iatrojenik ileokolonik perforasyonu inceleyen yeterli çalışma ve data yoktur. Bu nedenle biz intestinal Behçet Hastalığı olanlarda kolonoskopi sırasında ve kolonoskopi sonrasında gelişen perforasyon sorununu incelemeyi amaçladık. Gereç ve Yöntem:Mayıs 2002 ile Aralık 2007 tarihleri arasında üniversitemizde yapılan 2615 kolonoskopi olgusu değerlendirildi. Bu 2615 olgunun 135’inin kolonoskopi için ana endikasyonu intestinal Behçet Hastalığı idi. Bulgular: Toplam 135 intestinal Behçet hastasında ileokolonik tutulum olup olmadı-ğını anlamak için kolonoskopi yapıldı. 135 hastanın 8’inde (%5,9) ileal ve kolonik ülserler saptandı. İatrojenik perforasyon üç olguda (%2,22) görülürken, bunların 2’sinde proksimal kolon ve ileum’da ülserler bulundu. Üçüncü olgunun ülserleri sigmoid kolon, inen ve transvers kolon segmentlerindeydi. Bu 3 olgunun hepsi de ileal rezekziyon ve sağ hemikolektomi için cerrahiye gönderildiler. Sonuç:Behçet Hastalığında yalnız tanı için değil, aynı zamanda Behçet Hastalığının intestinal tutulumunun sürveyansı için kolonoskopi muayenesi çok yaygın olarak kullanılır. Volkan biçimli ülserler perforasyona özellikle eğilimlidirler. Konoskopi sırasında aşırı hava verilmesi perforasyona sebep olabileceğinden klinisyenler ve endoskopistler bu konuda uyanık olmalıdır. Ayrıca hastalar; kolonoskopik inceleme sonrasında karın ağrısı durumunda mutlaka takip edilmeli ve kolonik perforasyon her zaman akılda tutulmalıdır.
