  • Blind Loop Syndrome: Multiple Ileal Ulcers Following Side-To-Side Anastomosis
    Pathology, 1993
    Co-Authors: Yosuke Adachi, Tetsuya Matsushima, Masaki Mori, Keizo Sugimachi, Toshio Oiwa
    Abstract:

    A 59 yr old woman who had multiple ileal ulcers following side-to-side anastomosis without bowel resection is reported. She had a surgical history of adhesive ileus 15 yrs earlier, and was admitted with a complaint of lower abdominal pain. A barium meal study showed a stagnant and dilated distal ileum. At laparotomy, a previously performed side-to-side ileal anastomosis was encountered, and a markedly dilated bypassed Loop was recognized. The affected intestine was resected revealing multiple longitudinal ulcers and small shallow ulcers mostly located on the mesenteric side. This feature is similar to that of ischemic enteritis. This case further supports the fact that when side-to-side anastomosis is performed as a bypass operation, multiple ulcers may develop in a bypassed Loop after a long period of time.

  • Blind Loop Syndrome: an unusual cause of panniculitis.
    Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1997
    Co-Authors: F Caux, C Halimi, J P Kevorkian, L Pinquier, L Dubertret, J M Segrestaa
    Abstract:

    We describe a 52-year-old woman with panniculitis and Blind Loop Syndrome. She had undergone a gastrectomy for peptic ulcer 4 years before. Tender erythematous nodules on her palms and soles were associated with diarrhea and weight loss. A biopsy specimen revealed septal and lobular panniculitis. A glucose hydrogen breath test was consistent with bacterial overgrowth. These results were consistent with panniculitis associated with a Blind Loop Syndrome. Only four cases of this association have been reported previously.

  • Blind Loop perforation after side-to-side ileocolonic anastomosis.
    World journal of gastrointestinal surgery, 2014
    Co-Authors: Raffaele Dalla Valle, R. Zinicola, M. Iaria
    Abstract:

    Blind Loop Syndrome after side-to-side ileocolonic anastomosis is a well-recognized entity even though its incidence and complication rates are not clearly defined. The inevitable dilation of the ileal cul-de-sac leads to stasis and bacterial overgrowth which eventually leads to mucosal ulceration and even full-thickness perforation. Blind Loop Syndrome may be an underestimated complication in the setting of digestive surgery. It should always be taken into account in cases of acute abdomen in patients who previously underwent right hemicolectomy. We herein report 3 patients who were diagnosed with perforative Blind Loop Syndrome a few years after standard right hemicolectomy followed by a side-to-side ileocolonic anastomosis.
