Abstract

Pneumobilia is the presence of air in the biliary system. It mostly indicates a connection between the biliary system and the gastrointestinal tract, although it can also occur after trauma. The best diagnostic modality of pneumobilia is computed tomography (CT). We herein present a 32-year-old male patient with pneumobilia due to hepatic rupture caused by abdominal trauma after car crash. The instability of the patient and hepatic rupture were the reasons of surgical treatment. The surgeon should know that pneumobilia and portal venous gas are easily confused. While mortality risk of pneumobilia is lower than that of portal venous gas, in such conditions the patient should be operated, because chance of cure is quite high.

Abstract

Pnömobili, biliyer sistemde hava varlığıdır. Çoğunlukla biliyer sistem ile gastrointestinal sistem arasındaki bağlantıyı gösterir, ancak travmadan sonra da ortaya çıkabilir. En iyi tanısal radyolojik tetkik, bilgisayarlı tomografidir (BT). Bu yazıda, trafik kazası dolayısıyla gelişen karın travmasının neden olduğu hepatik rüptüre bağlı pnömobili ile prezente olan, 32 yaşında bir erkek hasta sunulmaktadır. Hastanın cerrahi endikasyonları, instabilitesi ve hepatik rüptürdü. Cerrahlar pnömobili ve portal venöz gazın kolayca karıştığını bilmelidirler. Pnömobilinin mortalite riski portal venöz gazınkinden daha düşük olmakla birlikte, bu gibi durumlarda hasta kesinlikle ameliyat edilmelidir, çünkü iyileşme şansı oldukça yüksektir.
