Description
Zenjiro Sekikawa and co-authors report a case where a bleeding treatment later narrowed a patient's intestine. Their 2024 case report follows a sixty-three-year-old man treated for acute gut bleeding. A catheter procedure sealed the bleeding vessel with a glue mixture, and at first it worked well.
More than a month later the bowel blocked. Several operations followed to fix a series of strictures that appeared one after another in the small intestine. The cause was a small drift of glue into vessels it was never meant to reach. Plain CT scans, reviewed in detail, proved decisive in pinning down the diagnosis after a quiet first month. The authors name the risk factors: vessel anatomy, procedure complexity, and glue dilution.
