CT of small bowel obstruction in adults.

The increasing use of computed tomography in evaluating patients with acute abdominal pain has revolutionized the diagnosis of small bowel obstruction in adults. Computed tomography is incontestably the most useful and powerful tool to make positive, topographic, and etiologic diagnoses of small bowel obstruction. Good knowledge of some key signs and rigorous analysis of computed tomographic images by radiologists should lead to improved diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

Strangulated transomental hernia: CT findings.

We report a case of surgically confirmed strangulation of small bowel through a defect in the greater omentum. Computed tomography demonstrated the presence and the location of this very unusual internal abdominal hernia. Those findings are presented.

Small bowel obstruction secondary to phytobezoar CT findings.

A rare cause of small bowel obstruction due to a phytobezoar is reported. CT demonstrated an ovoid intraluminal mass with mottled gas pattern within the small bowel and intestinal obstruction signs. We believe that these CT findings are pathognomonic of this condition.

Intradural disc herniation with cranial migration of an excluded fragment.

Intradural herniation is a rare complication of the intervertebral disc disease. The history and present clinical findings may suggest the diagnosis. Although the myelographic signs are well known, intradural hernias have seldom been illustrated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We present the case of an intradural disc hernia with cranial migration of a sequestrated fragment illustrated by both myelography and MRI. To our knowledge, such a case has never been reported in the literature so far.

Multidetector ct diagnosis of jejunal perforation by a chicken bone.

We report a case of perforation of the proximal jejunum by a sharp chicken bone. This case emphasizes the effectiveness of multislice CT in complex abdominal situations thanks to its possibilities of multiplanar reconstructions obtained with thinner collimation and higher resolution.
