Abstract

Objective: Small-bowel obstruction is a common emergency worldwide. Oleaster-leafed pear (Pyrus elaeagnifolia Pall.) is an endemic wild pear species in Anatolia. The wild pear fruits are consumed for the treatment of diarrhea in traditional medicine. Here, we describe adhesive small-bowel obstruction following consumption of wild pear.
Material and Methods: The medical records of patients who were followed with a diagnosis of adhesion-related small-bowel obstruction between May 2018 and September 2019 were reviewed retrospectively. Patients were divided into two groups as wild pear-related small-bowel obstruction (Group 1) and patients with not wild pear-related small-bowel obstruction (Group 2). Patient characteristics, blood parameters and clinical features were compared between groups.
Results: A total of 74 patients including 16 in Group 1 and 58 in Group 2 were included. The median age in Group 1 and Group 2 was 55 and 60.5, respectively. Increased levels of leukocyte, C-reactive protein, blood urea nitrogen were significantly more frequent in Group 2 (all p<0.05). Group 1 was associated with a shorter duration of complaints and faster recovery (all p<0.05). Surgical intervention was required in only Group 2.
Conclusion: The potential adverse effects of over-consumed traditional medicines should be kept in mind. Questioning the last food consumed before the complaints started may be a clue for food-induced small-bowel obstruction.

İğde Yapraklı Armut Tüketimine Bağlı İnce Bağırsak Obstrüksiyonu: Retrospektif Çalışma

Year 2022, Volume: 24 Issue: 2, 236 - 244, 31.08.2022

Abstract

Amaç: İnce bağırsak obstrüksiyonu dünya çapında yaygın bir acil durumdur. İğde yapraklı armut (Pyrus elaeagnifolia Pall.), Anadolu'da endemik bir yabani armut türüdür. Yabani armut meyveleri geleneksel tıpta diare tedavisi için tüketilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, yabani armut tüketimi sonrası gelişen adheziv ince bağırsak obstrüksiyonunu tanımlıyoruz.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Mayıs 2018-Eylül 2019 tarihleri arasında adezyona bağlı ince bağırsak obstrüksiyonu tanısı ile takip edilen hastaların tıbbi kayıtları geriye dönük incelendi. Hastalar, yabani armutla ilişkili ince bağırsak obstrüksiyonlu hastalar (Grup 1) ve yabani armutla ilişkisiz ince bağırsak obstrüksiyonlu hastalar (Grup 2) olarak iki gruba ayrıldı. Gruplar arasında, hasta özellikleri, kan parametreleri ve klinik özellikler karşılaştırıldı.
Bulgular: Grup 1'de 16 ve grup 2'de 58 olmak üzere toplam 74 hasta çalışmaya dahil edildi. Grup 1 ve Grup 2'de ortanca yaş sırasıyla 55 ve 60,5 idi. Lökosit, C-reaktif protein, kan üre azotu seviyeleri Grup 2'de anlamlı olarak daha yüksekti (tümü p<0.05). Grup 1, daha kısa şikâyet süresi ve daha hızlı iyileşme ile ilişkili bulundu (tümü p<0.05). Sadece Grup 2'de cerrahi müdahale gerekti.
Sonuç: Aşırı tüketilen geleneksel ilaçların potansiyel yan etkileri akılda tutulmalıdır. Şikayetler başlamadan önce tüketilen son gıdanın sorgulanması, gıda kaynaklı ince bağırsak obstrüksiyonu için bir ipucu olabilir.
