Abstract

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the fourth most prevalent cancer in the world and is positioned the second most common cancer in the United States. Patients with CRC in Indonesia showed a greater proportion. In Jakarta, 47.85% of CRC cases occur under the age of 45 years. The purpose of this study is to determine metastasis and the factors that influence colorectal cancer patients. Method: This study was conducted retrospectively from January 2003-December 2007 in Cipto Mangunkusumo hospital. Patients are eligible if they underwent colonoscopy, tumor biopsy, anatomical pathology, abdominal CT scan, abdominal ultrasonography, and radiology procedures. Result: Of all 1,615 patients who underwent colonoscopy procedure, 377 patients were diagnosed with colorectal cancer. Subject that met the criteria consist of 86 patients, where 56 (65.1%) male. Most aged 51-60 years old (26.7%), mean age 47.90 ± 14.53 years old. The tumor is most commonly located in the rectum and sigmoid 40 (46.5%), in which 18 (45%) among them had metastasized. Compared with male patients, female patients experienced more metastases, but not statistically significant. Among the patients with metastasized CRC, 42.3% of them 40 years old, 37.2% patients 41-60 years old, and 29.4% patients 60 years old. Well-differentiated CRC produce larger number of metastatic cases than poorly-differentiated CRC. Poorly-differentiated CRC tend to produce adjacent metastasis, and also happened in relatively young age in compared with well-differentiated cancer. Conclusion: There was significant correlation between younger age group with a poor degree of histopathologic differentiation. Patients with CRC consist of more male patients than female ones. Factors sex, age group, histopathologic subtypes, and tumor location was not associated with metastasis. Keywords: colorectal cancer, metastasis, well-differentiated, poorly-differentiated

Abstract

Colon polyps can be a predisposing factor for colon cancer; they should be immediately removed once they are found. Most of colon cancer arises from adenoma. Most adenoma cases are asymptomatic. It is frequently detected at the first time when someone undergoes screening for colorectal cancer with the ima- ging modalities in the medical check-up. Approximately, 10-40% of patients without any symptoms with the positive result of occult blood test suffer from adenoma. By using colonoscopy, we can detect for adenoma cancer and adenoma polyps, so colonoscopic procedure is recommended for individuals with the high risk for colorectal cancer. Excision and polyp removal during colonoscopy is a treatment choice to lower the risk for developing colon cancer. Surgical intervention is usually required in the management of adenoma polyps for those with an extremely large size which cannot be resected through endoscopy. There are some sugges- tions for preventing of adenoma growing such as vegetable and fruit diet, limit intake of meat and fatty food. And finally do physical activities regularly and stay away from alcohol and cigarettes Keywords: colon polyps, colonoscopy, polypectomi, vegetable and fruit diet

Abstract

Background: Result of colonoscopic examination in infectious colitis was varying. The aim of this study was to recognize the correlation between colonoscopical and histopathological findings in patients with infectious colitis at Cipto Mangunkusumo hospital, Jakarta. Method: A cross-sectional study had been conducted. There were 227 patients with infectious colitis with unidentified etiology and 17 patients with amebic colitis. In both groups, several variables had been studied including sex, age group and indication of colonoscopy by using Chi-square test. The relationship between hematochezia and amebic colitis event was also studied by using Chi-square test. To recognize the ability of colonoscopy test in diagnosing amebic colitis, we conducted diagnostic test by searching the sensitivity and specificity. Result: In both groups of infectious colitis, we found male more frequent than female. There was a significant difference mean of age in both group of infectious colitis (p = 0.04). The mean age of amebic colitis group was younger (35.86 ± 14.36 years) than the other infectious colitis group (45.34 ± 15. 90 years). The incidence of amebic colitis was more frequent in hematochezia than in non -hematochezia (p 0.001). The sensitivity and specificity of colonoscopy in diagnosing amebic colitis were 35% and 97%, respectively. Conclusion: There was a tendency of developing amebic colitis in patients with hematochezia than non-hematochezia. In diagnosing the presence of amebic colitis, colo noscopy examination has lo w sensitivity and high specificity.   Keywords: discrepancy, infectious colitis, amebic colitis, colonoscopy, histopathological finding

Abstract

Background: Diarrhea has been widely encountered in developing countries, including Indonesia. This study aimed to investigate the incidence of parasites and fungal infections, which also constitutes the etiologies of acute diarrhea. Method: A cross-sectional study was performed involving 93 patients. Patients with chief complaint of acute diarrhea were recruited at five hospitals in Jakarta, Indonesia during the period of November 2008 until May 2009. Acute diarrhea was defined as passing watery or soft stools with frequency of more than three times per day, weighted more 200 g per day, and occurred in less than 15 days duration. They were asked to collect their stool to the laboratory for further parasites and fungal detection. Results: This study showed that 41 out of 93 patients (44.09%) were found to be infected with parasites or fungi. The most common microorganism found was Candida albicans in 18 (19.35%) patients. Other parasites encountered in the stool samples were Blastocystis hominis, Entamoeba histolytica, Entamoeba coli, Giardia lamblia. The presenting clinical symptoms of the patients were fever (44.87%), bloating (41.03%), nausea (39.74%), oliguria (39.74%), cephalgia (35.90%), vomiting (24.36%), and tenesmus (19.23%). Conclusion: The incidence of parasitic and fungal infections in patients with acute diarrhea constitutes nearly half of all cases of infection-caused diarrhea. The most commonly encountered microorganism is Candida albicans. Keywords: parasites, fungi, acute diarrhea

Abstract

Background: Expression of COX-2 in vitro has been shown to have a number of cellular effects including increasing proliferation, reducing apoptosis promoting angiogenesis, decreasing E-cadherin expression and increasing invasive/metastatic potential. Aims: To determine the role of COX-2 in the development and metastasis potential of gastric carcinoma in human subjects. Methods: Tissue samples were obtained from surgically removed specimens of 48 patients with primary gastric adenocarcinoma who underwent gastrectomy from January 1998 to December 1999. The specimens were stained for HE while COX-2 expressions in cancer fold and antrum site were evaluated immunohistochemically. Expression of COX-2 was defined as positive when either one of cancer lesion or antrum site showed immunoreactivity. Results: Preliminary result from 12 out of 48 cases, COX-2 immunoreactivity was detected in 50% (6 of 12 specimens). Expression of COX-2 were more frequent in tumor with serosal invasion (5 of 6 specimens), lymph node metastases (3 of 3 specimens), tumor size more than 4 cm and were significant, statistically (p0.05). The expression of COX-2 in well differential carcinoma type was similar with in poorly differentiated carcinoma type. Conclusion: COX-2 expression in gastric carcinoma tissue is correlated closely with tumor size, serosal invasion and lymph node metastases, indicating that COX-2 is involved in the growth and metastases of gastric carcinoma. Keywords: Gastric carcinoma, cyclooxygenase-2, invasion, immunochemistry

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB), one of the oldest diseases known to affect humans, is a major cause of death worldwide. TB is still a major problem in Indonesia. This disease, which is caused by bacteria of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis, usually affects the lungs, although other organs are involved in up to one- third of cases. Approximately 95% cases of TB and 98% death because of TB occur in developing country. Gastrointestinal tuberculosis is uncommon, making up 3.5% of extrapulmonary cases in the United States. This kind of TB may involve gastrointestinal tract, peritoneal, lymph nodes, or solid intraabdominal organs (viscera). A 17 years old male admitted to hospital with TB peritonitis presenting unusual clinical manifestation. At the first admission patients was diagnosed with acute pancreatitis based on elevation of amylase and lipase level up to 285 and 2,046 U/L and after finishing further examination, patients suffered from tuberculous peritonitis which based on literature manifested some gastrointestinal disorders. Diagnostic confirmation was accomplished by conducting serum-ascites albumin gradient (SAAG) of 1.1 g/dL, peritoneal thickening and the presence of ascites with fine mobile septations on ultrasound, positive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) TB from ascitic fluid. Patients received conventional antitubercular therapy for 12 months of rifampicin, isoniazid, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol. The addition of corticosteroids for the first two or three months of treatment may reduce the incidence of late complications arising from adhesive disease, such as small bowel obstruction. Keywords: mycobacterium tuberculosis, tuberculous peritonitis, PCR, serum-ascites albumin gradient

Abstract

Peptic esophageal stricture secondary to gastroesophageal reflux is an important cause of esophageal stenosis and dysphagia. Symptoms of peptic strictures are usually insidious but progressive beginning with dysphagia to solids followed by dysphagia to liquids. It was estimated to occur in up to 20% of untreated patients, which has decreased significantly since the era of proton pump inhibitor therapy. The presence of esophageal reflux stricture is typically diagnosed by means of a barium esophagogram, although endoscopy may have both diagnostic and therapeutic value. Treatment usually involves dilation combined with acid- suppressive therapy. We reported a 43-year-old patient with complicated benign peptic stricture of the esophagus that finally underwent esophageal resection, a rarely therapeutic option.   Keywords: gastroesophageal reflux disease, benign peptic esophageal stricture, dysphagia, esophageal dilatation, surgical treatment

Abstract

Barrett’s esophagus (BE) is a predisposing factor of esophageal adenocarcinoma. Metaplasia on BE occurs due to imbalance between esophageal defensive and reluxate materials offensive factors. Nowadays, it is believed that gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is one of major risk factors of BE. Patients with BE generally have lower esophageal sphincter (LES) pressure, shorter LES and intra- abdominal esophageal length, and longer acid exposure than patients with severe esophagitis. Acid exposure has pro-proliferation and anti-apoptosis effect which can facilitate BE occurrence. Currently BE management has gone through various advance, especially in its diagnostic section, from the development of sophisticated endoscopic modality to the finding of biomarker to predict cancer occurrence on BE. Therapeutic section has also been progressing, especially with its endoscopic and chemoprevention therapy. This review article addresses the latest update of BE management.   Keywords: Barrett’s esophagus, GERD, management

Abstract

Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in the form of Crohn’s disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) is chronic IBD which still difficult to diagnose and clinically characterized by exacerbation and spontaneous remission. A precise diagnosis is needed and essential for appropriate treatment. Most of internists in Indonesia have to cope with a condition of poorly equipped endoscopic facilities - especially colonoscopy and subsequently refer their patients to endoscopic centers with colonoscopy facilities as well as sending biopsy specimens for histopathology examination. They also should be concerned that it would be expensive, time- consuming, and patients may suffer from considerable distress while waiting for the results of diagnostic confirmation. Therefore, we were interested in studying the clinical scoring for IBD to determine the diagnosis of possible IBD by assessing the combination of clinical reporting aspects, identification of probable IBD and histopathology examination Method: The study design was cross-sectional. We collected data pertinent to this study from medical records of patients with IBD clinical features at the endoscopic units of four hospitals in Jakarta between 1999 and 2009. Student t-test and logistic regression analysis were used for the statistic examination. Results: Based on colonoscopy examination, there were 213 patients with positive IBD and 173 patients with negative results. Histopathology results were considered as the gold standard in diagnosis of IBD. The mean clinical score was 9 (nine) points. Subjects with positive histopathology findings were significantly had higher average score than those with negative histopathology findings. Using ROC curves, we found cut-off score of 10 points with a sensitivity and specificity of 73% and 88% consecutively; while by applying logistic regression analysis, we found odds ratio (OR) of 20 (9.9-40.0 Conclusion: The clinical scoring for IBD is a valuable diagnostic tool in determining definitive diagnostic of IBD based on histopathology findings Keywords: clinical scoring, histopathology findings, definitive IBD
