Oclusión intestinal en paciente renal crónico secundario a bezoar de telas Reporte de un caso clínico / Intestinal Occlusion in a Chronic Renal Patient Secondary to Textile Bezoar. Clinical Case Report

RESUMEN

Resumen Los "bezoar" son conglomerados de materiales no comestibles ingeridos voluntaria o involuntariamente, no digeridos e incapaces de transitar por el tracto intestinal. Principalmente afectan a jóvenes mujeres o adolescentes que presentan el fenómeno llamado "pica", y a pesar de que se ha registrado una alta prevalencia de este fenómeno en pacientes con enfermedad renal crónica (ERC), ha sido poco estudiado. Caso clínico Paciente del sexo masculino de 35 años de edad que cursa con ERC KDIGO-5 en tratamiento con diálisis peritoneal; se obtiene el hallazgo de "bezoar plástico" transoperatorio (laparotomia por oclusión intestinal) a 10 cm de la válvula ileocecal. El paciente fallece por complicaciones de la patología de origen. Se plantea la necesidad de realizar la búsqueda de comportamientos en pacientes con ERC, que indiquen al cirujano la sospecha, dado que los pacientes generalmente ocultan u omiten referir sobre la ingesta de material extraño.

ABSTRACT

Abstract The "bezoar" are conglomerates of inedible materials ingested voluntarily or involuntarily, which are not digested and are unable to pass through the intestinal tract. They mainly affect young women or adolescents who present the phenomenon called "pica", despite the fact that a high prevalence of this phenomenon of "pica" has been registered in patients with chronic kidney disease, it has been little studied. Clinical case A 35-year-old male with CKD KDIGO-5 undergoing peritoneal dialysis treatment, which was found to have a transoperative "plastic bezoar" (laparotomy for intestinal occlusion) 10 cm from the ileocecal valve. The patient died due to complications of his pathology. Discussion: the clinical case raises the need to search for behaviors such as pica in patients with CKD, as well as to develop the suspicion to the surgeon, since patients generally hide or ignore reporting foreign material phagia.
