clostridium perfringens (c. perfringens) is related to gram-positive and anaerobic bacteria. this rod-shaped bacterium produces spores and can cause a wide spectrum of diseases in humans and animals. every of five different bacterium types can lead to different diseases. most of distinct bacterial recognition methods are not completely effective and practical in all condition. the objective of ...

Intestinal nonrotation is a subtype of malrotation and it usually detected incidentally in adulthood. Although often asymptomatic, patients with this condition are at increased risk conditions that may require emergency surgery, such as intestinal obstruction necrosis. In relation to our case 52-year-old male patient diagnosed radiological examinations performed for renal colic, the current sta...

The most common complications of Meckel’s diverticulum are Intestinal obstruction, gastrointestinal haemorrhage, adherence, intussusception, acute diverticulitis and rarely malignancy. Reported mechanism of intestinal obstruction in Meckel’s diverticulum include invagination, adherence and volvulus. Obstruction of ileum caused by volvulus of Meckel’s diverticulum is not a very frequent conditio...

We report a renal transplant recipient infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis who presented with severe intestinal bleeding. The bleeding was the result of an injured vessel of mesenteric artery distal branches diagnosed by traditional arteriography and computed tomography angiography. As the patient's condition was serious, the only considered rescue therapy was endovascular treatment. The e...

Two patients diagnosed as having small intestinal hyperplastic villous atrophy and being treated with a gluten free diet were investigated because of persistent watery diarrhoea. Both were found to have collagenous colitis. Previous reports of this condition have emphasised the presence of normal small intestinal mucosal architecture and the association of collagenous colitis with intestinal vi...

Metastatic small bowel tumors are rarely encountered. They usually present with small bowel obstruction, perforation, bleeding, or, rarely, intestinal intussusception. Only a few case reports have mentioned bowel symptoms due to metastatic malignancies. We report a seldom encountered clinical condition of intestinal intussusception from metastatic lung malignancy. Pathology demonstrated both ep...

The number of vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) receptors and the efficiency of VIP in the stimulation of cyclic AMP accumulation in rat jejunal epithelial cells increased after bilateral adrenalectomy. However, this condition increased neither receptor affinity nor VIP potency. In addition, jejunal VIP levels followed a parallel increase. These changes reversed to control conditions after gl...
