HISTORY AND CLINICAL FINDINGS: A 60-year-old man had a dacron aortofemoral bypass graft inserted to replace a ruptured infrarenal aortic aneurysm rupture. He subsequently had tachyarrhythmic atrial fibrillation with heart failure, NYHA class IV, and diffuse abdominal pain associated with watery diarrhea.
INVESTIGATIONS: Stool tests merely demonstrated Candida albicans. Abdominal ultrasound revealed intestinal loops with thickened walls and decreased peristalsis. Coloscopy demonstrated a retroperitoneal intestinal perforation with abscess formation resulting from ulcerative necrotizing rectosigmoid colitis which had also uncovered the vascular prosthesis near the abscess cavity.
DIAGNOSIS: Ischemic transmural necrotizing rectosigmoiditis with retroperitoneal intestinal perforation.
TREATMENT AND COURSE: The rectosigmoid colon was resected and an end-colostomy made with closure of the rectal stump (Hartmann's operation). The uncovered right limb of the vascular graft was covered completely and was discharged, being now mobile using a walking frame. There was no evidence of infection in the dacron prosthesis.
CONCLUSION: A transmural progression of an ischemic colitis should be considered as a late sequela after emergency vascular reconstruction of the abdominal aorta. Even if symptoms are mild, early postoperative sigmoidoscopy is indicated.
