ABSTRACT

Se presenta un caso clínico de una asociación infrecuente de Neumatosis intestinal con gas en vena porta y trombosis portal. Mujer de 37 años quien presenta cuadro de distensión y dolor abdominal de cuadro días de evolución. A su ingreso se encuentra afebril con presión arterial de 120/70. A su examen físico destaca sólo sensibilidad abdominal. Se realiza tomografía computada de abdomen y pelvis que muestra presencia de imágenes quísticas con gas en pared de colon ascendente, aire en sistema venoso portal y trombosis en rama de la vena porta. Se inicia tratamiento con antibióticos y oxígeno.La paciente evoluciona en forma favorable siendo dada de alta 11 días después de su ingreso. Varios estudios han mostrado que la Neumatosis intestinal aislada o con gas en la vena porta puede estar asociada a diferentes condiciones clínicas, sin embargo, la asociación de Neumatosis intestinal, gas y trombosis portal es un hallazgo infrecuente.


We report a rare condition of Pneumatosis intestinalis with hepatic portal venous gas associated to portal thrombosis. A 37 years old female presented with abdominal pain andbloating from four days before admission. Blood pressure was 120/70 and body temperature normal. Physical examination revealed only abdominal tenderness. CT scan showed intestinalgas-filled cysts, air in portal venous system and thrombosis at portal vein branches. Treatment with oxygen and antibiotic therapy was followed by a clinical improvement and patient was discharged after 11 days. Several studies have reported Pneumatosis intestinalis alone and with Hepatic portal venous gas in different pathological conditions. HoweverPneumatosis intestinalis with hepatic portal venous gas associated with portal thrombosis is a unusual condition.
