ABSTRACT

The stricturing and fistulizing forms of Crohn's disease (CD) exhibit many different results to clinical treatment and good response to surgical therapy. The prevalence of strictures in CD ranges from 12 to 54% and they are more frequently in patients with longer disease duration, and the terminal ileum is the most commonly affected location. The pharmacobezoars can be formed in any part of the gastrointestinal tract and are often associated with factors predisposing anatomic, functional or other concomitant conditions. The pharmacological properties of drugs may contribute to the pathophysiology of bezoars. The objective of this case report is to alert for the importance of the quality of prescribed medications that are used by patients with CD, through the finding of more than 350 tablets of mesalazine during the surgical treatment of a patient with the fibrostenotic pattern.

As formas estenosante e fistulizante da doença de Crohn (DC) apresentam resultado variável ao tratamento medicamentoso e boa resposta à terapia cirúrgica. A prevalência da DC estenosante varia de 12 a 54%, mais frequente nos pacientes com maior tempo de doença, sendo o íleo terminal o local mais acometido. Os farmacobenzoares podem se formar em qualquer porção do trato gastrointestinal e frequentemente estão associados a fatores anatômicos predisponentes, funcionais ou outras afecções concomitantes. As propriedades farmacológicas dos medicamentos podem contribuir na fisiopatologia da formação dos benzoares. O objetivo deste trabalho é alertar para a importância da qualidade dos fármacos prescritos e utilizados pelos pacientes com DC, por meio do achado de mais de 350 comprimidos de mesalazina durante o tratamento cirúrgico de um paciente com o padrão fibroestenosante.
