İnce barsak obstrüksiyonunda nadir bir etyoloji: Wilkie Sendromu, olgu sunumu

Abstract

Mechanical blockage of the bowel frequently causes abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and distention. Post-surgical adhesions are the most common etiologies. Wilkie syndrome develops as a result of compression of the third part of the duodenum between the aorta and the superior mesenteric artery and it is extremely rare. The patients are mostly cachectic due to inadequate nutrition. Surgical intervention, especially duodenojejunostomy, is a preferred method in the treatment of the disease. Multidisciplinary approach is important in the diagnosis, treatment and management of the disease.
