BMC Gastroenterol 2024; 24:6. [PMID: 38166815 PMCID: PMC10759549 DOI: 10.1186/s12876-023-03092-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2023] [Accepted: 12/12/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The location of gastrointestinal perforation is essential for severity evaluation and optimizing the treatment approach. We aimed to retrospectively analyze the clinical characteristics, laboratory parameters, and imaging features of patients with gastrointestinal perforation and construct a predictive model to distinguish the location of upper and lower gastrointestinal perforation. METHODS A total of 367 patients with gastrointestinal perforation admitted to the department of emergency surgery in Fujian Medical University Union Hospital between March 2014 and December 2020 were collected. Patients were randomly divided into training set and test set in a ratio of 7:3 to establish and verify the prediction model by logistic regression. The receiver operating characteristic curve, calibration map, and clinical decision curve were used to evaluate the discrimination, calibration, and clinical applicability of the prediction model, respectively. The multiomics model was validated by stratification analysis in the prediction of severity and prognosis of patients with gastrointestinal perforation. RESULTS The following variables were identified as independent predictors in lower gastrointestinal perforation: monocyte absolute value, mean platelet volume, albumin, fibrinogen, pain duration, rebound tenderness, free air in peritoneal cavity by univariate logistic regression analysis and stepwise regression analysis. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the prediction model was 0.886 (95% confidence interval, 0.840-0.933). The calibration curve shows that the prediction accuracy and the calibration ability of the prediction model are effective. Meanwhile, the decision curve results show that the net benefits of the training and test sets are greater than those of the two extreme models as the threshold probability is 20-100%. The multiomics model score can be calculated via nomogram. The higher the stratification of risk score array, the higher the number of transferred patients who were admitted to the intensive care unit (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION The developed multiomics model including monocyte absolute value, mean platelet volume, albumin, fibrinogen, pain duration, rebound tenderness, and free air in the peritoneal cavity has good discrimination and calibration. This model can assist surgeons in distinguishing between upper and lower gastrointestinal perforation and to assess the severity of the condition.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The diagnosis of acute small bowel diseases is one of the challenging issues that confronted by the radiologists so accurate diagnosis is essential to determine the appropriate way of management. CT has become the preferred imaging tool to evaluate acute small bowel diseases. Our study aimed to assess the role of MDCT in evaluation of acute abdomen secondary to small bowel origin by identification and differentiation between different acute small bowel pathologies.
Results
Thirty-eight patients presented with acute abdomen of small bowel origin from June 2019 to September 2019. The mean age of incidence was 48 ± 19 years ranged from 4 to 88 years. Males represented by 23 patients (60.5%). Acute exacerbation of inflammatory bowel diseases (Crohn’s disease) represented by (34.2%), small bowel obstruction (31.6%), ischemic bowel diseases (21.1%), small bowel perforation (10.5%) and infectious (TB enteritis) small bowel disease (2.6%). MDCT had an overall high sensitivity (97.3%) in assessment of acute small bowel diseases in correlation with post-operative data and follow-up response to management.
Conclusions
MDCT is a reliable diagnostic imaging tool for assessment of patients with acute abdomen secondary to small bowel origin with high-efficiency in differentiation between different pathological entities that causing acute abdomen.

World J Clin Cases 2021; 9:8858-8863. [PMID: 34734067 PMCID: PMC8546811 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v9.i29.8858] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2021] [Revised: 07/19/2021] [Accepted: 08/16/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastrointestinal perforation complicated by subphrenic abscess is a surgical emergency. Its diagnosis relies mainly on X-ray or computed tomography (CT), while the value of ultrasound, especially contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), has been underestimated.
CASE SUMMARY A 37-year-old man presented with fever and edema of the lower extremities for 10 d. He had a history of laparoscopic repair of gastroduodenal perforation 6 mo prior. His first-time intravenous CEUS indicated a diagnosis of subphrenic abscess. He received antibiotic therapy and ultrasound-guided percutaneous drainage of the abscess. However, second-time intravenous CEUS revealed an unsatisfactory therapeutic effect. Intracavitary CEUS was proposed, and this examination detected communication between the abscess and the stomach. Upper gastrointestinal perforation complicated by fistula formation and subphrenic abscess was diagnosed with the help of CEUS. Abdominal CT and esophagogastroduodenoscopy confirmed the diagnosis. The patient recovered after the perforation was repaired by surgery.
CONCLUSION Intravenous and intracavitary CEUS provides helpful information for the diagnosis of upper gastrointestinal perforation complicated by fistula formation and subphrenic abscess.

Accuracy of specific free air distributions in predicting the localization of gastrointestinal perforations. Emerg Radiol 2021; 29:99-105. [PMID: 34633581 DOI: 10.1007/s10140-021-01990-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2021] [Accepted: 10/01/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the role of specific distributions of free air in predicting the location of gastrointestinal (GI) tract perforation. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred and fifteen patients with surgically proven GI tract perforation between January 2015 and June 2019 were included in the study. The site of perforation was based on surgical findings in all cases. Two radiologists retrospectively interpreted the computed tomography (CT) images of these patients for extraluminal free air distribution. Perforation sites were demonstrated intraoperatively in all cases and were categorized as follows: stomach and duodenum, jejunum and ileum, proximal colon (cecum, ascending colon, and transverse colon), distal colon (descending colon and sigmoid colon), rectum, and appendix. RESULTS There were 79 male and 36 female patients with a mean age of 56.4 years. Periportal, perihepatic, and perigastric free air were statistically significant in predicting gastroduodenal perforation. Mesenteric free air was significant in predicting both small bowel and distal colon perforations. Pelvic free air was statistically significant in distal colon perforations. Periappendiceal free air was found to be a strong predictor of acute perforated appendicitis. CONCLUSION Specific free air distributions may help to predict the site of gastrointestinal perforation, which would change the treatment plan.
