Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics,diagnosis and treatment of ileal injury secondary to percutaneous nephrolithotomy percutaneous nephrolithotomy(PCNL).Methods The diagnosis and treatment of a patient were reviewed,and relevant literature were retrieved.Results The patient was a 41-year-old male,who underwent stage PCNL(initial percutaneous nephrostomy,followed by secondary PCNL)due to right ureteral calculi with severe hydronephrosis.On postoperative day 1,he developed abdominal distension and pain.Abdominal X-ray revealed subdiaphragmatic free gas,and CT showed pelvic and abdominal fluid and gas accumulation,suggesting peritonitis due to intestinal perforation.Emergency exploratory laparotomy identified a 3 mm×3 mm ileal perforation approximately 30 cm from the ileocecal valve,which was repaired surgically.The patient recovered well and was discharged after one week,with no discomfort reported during a 6-month follow-up.Conclusion The clinical features of ileal injury secondary to PCNL include early postoperative abdominal distension,pain and peritonitis.Diagnosis relies on clinical manifestations,abdominal X-ray and CT,with surgical exploration if necessary.Conservative management under vigilant observation can be cautiously adopted for localized injuries,while surgical repair is required for peritonitis or failed conservative therapy.

This paper reports 3 cases of acute hepatitis of unknown cause in children who met the case definition of WHO. Human adenovirus group C was detected in case 3, and the quantity of viral DNA was relatively high, which may be related to the liver function damage in the patient, but its role in pathogenesis needs further study to confirm.
