Abstract:
Objective To explore the diagnosis and treatment of abdominal cocoon. Methods This article retrospectively summarized clinical data of 6 cases of abdominal cocoon. Results All the 6 cases of abdominal cocoon were misdiagnosed preoperatively: 5 cases were diagnosed as having intestinal obstruction and 1 case,abdominal mass.Partial or total capsule resection was adopted in all the 6 cases,1 of which simultaneously underwent intestinal arrangement. Conclusions Abdominal cocoon is not specific,which is difficult to diagnose preoperatively.Upper digestive tract radiography,B-ultrasonography and CT scanning help to make the diagnosis.Partial or total capsule resection,intestinal arrangement,intestinal resection and release for intestinal adhesion are usually adopted as the treatment.
