Abstract

Introduction: To report the clinical course of a Chagas’s disease patient with severe intestinal failure after resection of the total colon and terminal ileum. Case Report: The patient underwent rectosigmoidectomy (of the sigmoid volvulus, December 2009) and total colectomy plus partial ileectomy (May 2011). Patient evolved with multiple hospitalizations caused by severe diarrhea (up to 23 stools/day), hydroelectrolyte disturbance and acute renal failure, severe protein-energy malnutrition [loss of 34.9% of usual body weight (uBW)], and multiple episodes of sepsis. Were prescribed parenteral nutrition solutions exclusively or concurrently with very small volumes (e.g., 40ml/day) of semi-elemental diet with low fat and high protein. After several weeks predetermined amounts of carbohydrate-rich foods (potatoes, rice, pasta, cassava), vegetables (chayote, carrots), low-fat meat, cream crackers, coconut water and fruit (watermelon, melon, banana) were progressively introduced. After 36 months, the patient was metabolically stable (BW=67.2 kg, weight recovery of 23.6 kg), with hydroelectrolytic balance. Due to the recovery of the functional capacity, the patient was advised to return to his work activities.  Conclusions: Chagas’s disease patient submitted to intestinal resection may have severe intestinal failure and protein-energy malnutrition. Specialized nutritional therapy and clinical and laboratory monitoring by a multidisciplinary team, can contribute to better prognostic.
查加斯病患者全结肠切除加部分回肠切除术后的严重肠衰竭
简介:报告1例查加斯病患者在全结肠和回肠末端切除后出现严重肠衰竭的临床过程。病例报告:患者于2009年12月行乙状结肠直肠切除术(乙状结肠扭转切除术),2011年5月行全结肠+部分回肠切除术。患者因严重腹泻(多达23次/天)、水电解质紊乱和急性肾衰竭、严重的蛋白质-能量营养不良(正常体重损失34.9%)和多次脓毒症而多次住院。只给患者开肠外营养液,或同时给患者开极少量(如40ml/天)的低脂高蛋白半元素饮食。几周后,预定数量的富含碳水化合物的食物(土豆、大米、意大利面、木薯)、蔬菜(白瓜、胡萝卜)、低脂肉、奶油饼干、椰子水和水果(西瓜、甜瓜、香蕉)逐渐被引入。36个月后,患者代谢稳定(体重67.2 kg,体重恢复23.6 kg),水电解质平衡。由于功能恢复,建议患者恢复工作活动。结论:行肠切除术的恰加斯病患者可能存在严重的肠衰竭和蛋白质能量营养不良。由多学科团队进行的专门营养治疗和临床及实验室监测有助于改善预后。
