Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) remains to be one of the most common problems in developing countries such as Indonesia. It can involve many organs including gastrointestinal tracts. Colonic tuberculosis is an ancient disease and has long been recognized. However, it is sometimes difficult to make early diagnosis due to its nonspecific signs and symptoms. Perianal granulomas or perianal fistula presents some degree of diagnostic difficulty. A spectrum of diseases can produce granulomas in perianal region and perineum. Most are infectious or inflammatory diseases. Standard histological diagnosis often less significant to clarify the etiology and treatment will vary from one to another disease entity. In this report, we present a case 17-years old man with colitis TB and fistula perianal, in which the initial diagnostic workup suggested Crohn’s disease. Mantoux test, Acid Fast Bacilli test on fecal examination and polymerase chain reaction analysis revealed negative result. The chest X-ray was normal; while the fistulography X-ray: revealed 2 orifices in rectosigmoid area. The colonoscopy revealed mucosa edema with ulceration in rectosigmoid and pedincular polyp in the caecum. Initial colonoscopy diagnosis was Crohn’s disease with differential diagnosis colitis ulcerative, colitis TB, colitis infection. results of direct or post homogenizes examination (Ziel–Nielsen staining) revealed that no acid-fast bacilli was found. Multiple biopsies were done, which indicated  mucosa edema with ulceration in rectosigmoid area, pedincular polyp in the caecum, and surrounded by fistula perianal; while histopathological examination showed inflammatory-caseating-epithelioid-granulomas and giant cells (Langhans datia cell) caused by tuberculosis. It highlights the need for awareness of intestinal TB along with the differential diagnosis of chronic intestinal disease. Standard regimen of antituberculosis treatment was given and the patient showed good clinical response. Keywords: Crohn’s disease, caseating epithelioid granuloma, giant cell, colitis TB, perianal fistula

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) is a significant public health problem worldwide. Indonesia is a country with the third highest prevalence of TB in the world after China and India. TB infection can attack all organs of the human body. TB in digestive system is one of the extrapulmonary TB manifestations and comprises of 3- 16% of all extrapulmonary TB cases. This type of TB may affect digestive system, peritoneum, mesentery lymphatic glands, liver, and spleen. Digestive system is affected in 66-75% of patients with abdominal TB. The ileocaecal region is most commonly affected. The manifestation of abdominal TB is not specific. Precise diagnostic approach and supporting results are needed to determine final diagnosis. However, there is no single examination adequate enough to diagnose abdominal TB. If the diagnosis can be established early, this disease could then be managed with conventional anti-TB drugs. Treatment for both 6-9 months period and 18-24 months period has been proven effective in management of extrapulmonary TB. In countries with high abdominal TB prevalence, initiation of anti-TB therapy is allowed if there are the clinical features present. Diagnosis can be determined when the patient has therapeutic response against the the anti-TB treatment.   Keywords: tuberculosis, colitis, extrapulmonary, antituberculosis drugs

Abstract

Esophageal dilation is a non-surgical management for anatomic and functional abnormalities causing both benign and malignant esophageal stricture. The basic goals of stricture dilation include safe and efficacious lumenal enlargement plus prevention of restenosis. These could be achieved using through- the-scope (TTS) balloon dilations, ranged in diameter of 4 to 40 mm, they will allow dilation of previously inaccessible strictures in the esophagus, stomach, small bowel, and colon. There are 5,000–15,000 cases of stricture due to ingestion of corrosive substances in United States every year. The following case would demonstrate a 28-year-old male with depressive disorder who attempted a suicide by ingesting corrosive substances two months before admission. Subsequently he started having difficulty in swallowing even soft foods. The complaint was gradually increasing until a month before admission he went through endoscopic examination and a corrosive esophageal stricture found. Hence after, he underwent dilation using Savary bouginage with fluoroscopy and through-the-scope (TTS) balloon dilations. The patient underwent a series of dilation treatment and demonstrated vigorous improvement. Problems raised as the patient was complicated with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dislocation due to traumatic injury after ingesting corrosive substances. The consideration in management of esophageal stricture with complications will be discussed further in this article. Keywords: esophageal stricture, corrosive substances, dysphagia, temporomandibular joint dislocation, through-the-scope polyethylene balloon dilation

Abstract

Gastric cancer remains the second most common cancer in the world, and is usually found in men, especially those over 50 years of age. The diagnosis is made by endoscopic biopsy. The high frequency of late diagnosis or advanced stages accounts for the overall poor prognosis for this tumor. Surgery is the most frequently employed modality for both cure and palliation. However, most patients present with advanced disease that is incurable. We reported a rare case of young female patient aged 23 years old with advanced gastric carcinoma. The main clinical features were epigastric discomfort, vomiting, and weight loss. An abdominal mass was palpable on physical examination. Endoscopy showed a giant tumor mass causing gastric outlet obstruction, nodular lesion, ulcerative and hemorrhagic. The histopathologic examination revealed mucinous gastric carcinoma. Palliative resection could not be performed because the tumor tightly adhered to adjacent structures. Jejunostomy was performed to allow enteral nutrition. Best supportive care is very important to improve the quality of life. Keywords: Gastric cancer, young patient

Abstract

Background: Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is the rate-limiting enzyme in prostaglandin synthesis, while nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) is a family of transcription factors. Both play an important role in tumorigenesis. In the present study, we examined NF-kB and COX-2 expressions pattern, and their association in neoplastic and non-neoplastic colorectal polyps (CP). Method: Formalin-fixed and paraffin embedded tissue blocks from 77 patients with CP were immunostained with anti-NF-kB (p 65) and anti-COX-2. Expressions of NF-kB, and COX-2 were detected immunohistochemically. The relationship between these expressions and the two types of CP, and other clinicopathological findings were evaluated Results: The expressions of NF-kB and COX-2 in patients with neoplastic and non-neoplastic CP were high. The results of this study indicated that generally in CP, NF-kB was associated with COX-2 and the association was also seen in neoplastic and non-neoplastic polyps. There was no significant difference of NF-kB and COX-2 expressions in terms of patient’s age, sex, histologic type, and location of the CP. Neoplastic CPs were more common in the distal colon, female patients and older patients ( 60 years) compared with non-neoplastic CPs. Neoplastic CP were located more at the distal colon, more in female, and more in older ( 60 years) patients as compared with the non-neoplastic CP. Further studies are needed to elaborate the role of inflammation in sporadic colorectal carcinogenesis. Conclusion: The expressions of NF-kB and COX-2 in patients with CP were high, and strong correlated each other. There were no significant differences between expression of NF-kB and COX-2 in neoplastic and non-neoplastic polyps. Keywords: colorectal polyps (CP), NF- B, COX-2, inflammation

Abstract

Constipation is the most ignored complaint by doctors and unfortunately, it requires urgent management due to the decreased quality of life. Most cases are functional constipation but there is also a great number of constipation due to organic abnormalities. In an attempt to manage the patient properly, we should put our emphasis on excellent knowledge of pathophysiology of constipation.By using the colonic transit time test, we could determine the type of constipation, which would have an effect on therapy. In most cases, constipation has a good response to high fiber diet and additional laxative medication and surgical therapy is seldom required unless complications have occurred. There is also a suggestion for preventing constipation may be caused by opioid usage. Keywords: Constipation, colonic transit time test, high fiber diet, laxatives

Abstract

Background: The prevalence of erosive esophagitis tends to increase recently. It induces higher medical expense, loss of working time, and decreases quality of life. However the study on risk factors of erosive esophagitis scarcely reported in Indonesia. This study aimed to find the association between age, sex, smoking, alcohol drinking, body mass index, hiatal hernia, the use of non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), and drugs that decrease lower esophageal sphincter (LES) tone with the occurrence of erosive esophagitis in dyspeptic patients. Method: A case-control study was conducted on patients with dyspepsia who underwent upper gastrointestinal endoscopy procedure and had been interviewed to determine risk factors for erosive esophagitis in July - September 2008. The association between risk factors and the occurrence of erosive esophagitis were analyzed using Chi-square, which subsequently revealed p 0.25, this variable included in multivariate analysis. Result: There were 135 patients fulfilled criteria; 45 patients as cases and 90 patients as controls. The association was found between the occurrence of erosive esophagitis in dyspeptic patients and smoking more than 15 cigarette/day (OR 15.43; p = 0.00; CI 95% 4.77-49.88), the use of NSAID (OR 9.49; p = 0.00; CI 95% 2.77-32.53) and the consumption of drugs that decrease LES tone (OR 3.56; p = 0.02; CI 95% 1.26-10.02). Conclusion: Smoking more than 15 cigarettes/day, use of NSAID and drugs that decrease LES tone is a risk factors for the occurrence of erosive esophagitis. Keywords: erosive esophagitis, NSAID, smoking, drugs that decrease LES tone

Abstract

Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome (PJS) is a rare condition that tends to run in families. Diagnosis of PJS is made if a person has polyps in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and at least two of the following: polyps in the small bowel, melanin spots, and/or a family history of PJS. The typical clinical manifestation of the disease is associated with complications secondary to intestinal polyps often requiring surgical treatment. A young woman, 29 years old with PJS had been hospitalized in Cipto Mangunkusumo hospital. She was suffering from GI complication secondary to her polyps such as abdominal pain, nausea, vomited every time she takes her meal and milk, anorexia, fatigue, weakness, chronic diarrhea with hematoschezia. Upper and lower endoscopy showed the multiple polyps along from esophagus, gaster, duodenum, and her colon. Histopathology examination confirmed the type of polyps is Peutz Jeghers with the unique morphology consisting of mucosa with interdigitating smooth muscle bundles that yield a characteristic branching tree appearance. We also found the family tree of this patient and it is a good evident how PJS can be inherited in a family. Keywords: Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, melanin spots, polypsry

Abstract

Incidence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) has been significantly increased, and nearly 25% of the population has experienced GERD. It appears to be correlated to an increasing number of obesity in the population (BMI 30 kg/m2). Mechanism of the GERD is affected by multifactor. Increased intra-abdominal pressure is considered as one of risk factors for GERD. The development of GERD is virtually associated with a down turning of lower esophageal sphincter tonus, increased transient lower esophagus sphincter relaxation (TLESR), and decreased capacity of esophageal clearance. Management of GERD in obesity includes weight loss treatment, pharmacotherapy by using prokinetics, H2 -receptor antagonists, proton pump inhibitor and surgical approach including fundoplication, gastric banding and vertical banded gastroplasty. Keywords: GERD, obesity, BMI, TLESR, weight loss, abdominal pressure

Abstract

Background: Upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) is one of the emergency cases in gastroenterology. The mortality rate does not change in the last 4 decades, however, there is no precise data in Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital. Identified risk factors are expected to increase early awareness and optimal planning in management of patients. This study was aimed to know the mortality risk factors in acute UGIB in Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital. Method: Case control study was performed between August and December 2011 by collecting and studying medical records of acute UGIB patients who were admitted and hospitalized between January 2003 and June 2011 in Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital. Cases were acute UGIB patients who passed away during hospitalization in that period of time. Controls were patients who did not pass away and hospitalize in same period (date/month/year index). Samples were taken randomly with the proportion of case and control 1 : 2. Bivariate analysis was perfomed by chi-square test and continued with multivariate analysis. Results: Study subjects consisted of 87 cases and 174 controls. Significant variables as risk factors were multiple co-morbidities (OR = 2.66; 95% CI = 1.21-5.85), recurrent bleeding (OR = 9.07; 95% CI = 3.87-21.26), decreased consciousness (OR = 7.60; 95% CI = 1.94-29.88), endoscopy not performed (OR = 11.95; 95% CI = 4.75-30.11), and sepsis (OR = 4.83; 95% CI = 2.03-11.48). Conclusion: Multiple co-morbidities, sepsis, decreased consciousness on hospital admission, and recurrent bleeding are mortality risk factors in acute UGIB. Mortality risk increases in patients, to whom endoscopy was not performed. Keywords: UGI bleeding, risk factors, mortality
