장결핵 치유 후 협착에 의해 발생한 충수돌기염 1예 = A Case of Acute Appendicitis due to Intestinal Stricture after Intestinal Tuberculosis Treatment

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Intestinal hemorrhage, perforation, obstruction, and fistula formation are the common complications associated with intestinal tuberculosis. However, these complications usually occurr in active stage of intestinal tuberculosis. A 45-year-old man was diagnosed as intestinal tuberculosis and received anti-tuberculosis medications for 9 months. After the end of treatment, intestinal lesion was cured. However a deformed appendiceal orifice due to hypertrophic sear resulting in symptomatic appendictis was noted. We report a case of acute appendicitis due to intestinal stricture after the successful treatment of intestinal tuberculosis. (Korean J Gastroenterol 2007;50:277-279)
