Ventrikelbezoar forårsaget af bariumsulfat

Translated title of the contribution: Gastric bezoar caused by barium sulphate

Marie Kristina Rue Nielsen, Caroline Ewertsen, Jens Georg Hillingsø

Abstract

We present the first case of a gastric bezoar caused by barium sulphate acting as an intermittently occluding mass in a patient who had undergone small bowel follow-through on suspicion of small bowel obstruction (SBO) after total pancreatectomy. The patient underwent acute surgery but intermittent symptoms of SBO persisted. A barium bezoar was seen on plain abdominal film and afterwards diluted and fragmented gastroscopically. A barium bezoar giving rise to SBO is a possible complication to barium follow-through in patients with impaired gastric transit time.
