Zusammenfassung

Der Ileuskrankheit liegt eine manifeste Störung der Darmpassage zugrunde, deren Ursachen vielfältig sind. Diese führen über verschiedene pathophysiologische Mechanismen wie Distension des Darmlumens, Störungen der Mikrozirkulation und Elektrolytverschiebungen zur Dekompensation lebenswichtiger Organsysteme. Aus diesen pathophysiologischen Veränderungen ergeben sich gegebenenfalls nicht operative Therapieoptionen, vorausgesetzt es besteht kein das Darmlumen obstruierendes, mechanisches Hindernis. Der Ersatz von Wasser- und Elektrolytmengen sind neben der mechanischen Dekompression mittels entlastenden Magen- oder Darmsonden von entscheidender Bedeutung für den Erfolg der konservativen Therapie.

Abstract

Intestinal obstruction may be mechanical or nonmechanical (adynamic ileus). Adhesions and external hernias are the most common causes of obstruction in small intestine, whereas carcinoma, sigmoid diverticulitis, and volvulus are the most common causes in large intestine obstruction. Distension of the intestine caused by gas and fluid accumulation in the obstructed segment is the key pathophysiological mechanism initiating ileus with subsequent multiorgan failure and death. Surgery should always be undertaken if complete obstruction or strangulation is suggested and ileus is established. Before operation, the fluid and electrolyte balance should be restored and decompression instituted by means of a nasogastric tube. Delaying the operation because of improvement in patient well-being during resuscitation is only justified in those suffering from large intestine obstruction due to colorectal carcinoma. Purely nonoperative treatment is safe only in the presence of incomplete obstruction and best utilized in patients with postoperative adynamic ileus or repeated episodes of partial obstruction.
