peritoneal encapsulation syndrome
The clinical syndrome is characterized by various degrees of intestinal obstruction due to thickening, sclerosis and calcification of peritoneum resulting in the encapsulation and cocooning of the bowel. Affiliations. First described by Cleland in 1868, PES is a . EPS can be divided into primary and secondary [2]. Although described by various names in the literature, the preferred term is encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis because it best describes the morphologic and histologic .

Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis: associated with severe malnutrition, with progressive obstruction and encapsulation of the bowel, often fatal. CiteSeerX - Document Details (Isaac Councill, Lee Giles, Pradeep Teregowda): Peritoneal encapsulation [PE] is a rare condition characterised by a peritoneal sac covering the small intestine. Primary SEP is also named idiopathic SEP or cocoon syndrome. Peritoneal encapsulation (PE) is an extremely rare congenital condition in which there is abnormal return of the midgut loop to the abdominal cavity in the early stages of development. Although there are a few reports on EPS developing in non-peritoneal dialysis patients, it has not been reported in patients undergoing allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). 1 author. 1. The definition of EPS is based on the clinical findings linked to bowel obstruction and on the demonstration of peritoneal thickening. It has been reported predominantly in adolescent girls living in tropical/subtropical region in which diagnosis is only made at laparotomy in most cases. Introduction. EPS causes intestinal encapsulation leading to bowel obstruction and dilatation. Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a devastating syndrome of excessive fibrotic peritoneal thickening that can eventually encapsulate the bowel, leading to partial or total bowel obstruction Incidence and prevalence of this syndrome have been defined in some large populations and a few single-centre experiences, but there is no satisfactory estimate of the comparative incidence of dialysis . Peritoneal encapsulation is an infrequently described congenital anomaly that results in formation of an accessory peritoneal membrane . Peritoneal encapsulation: a rare cause of bowel obstruction in children. Then, different terms such as sclerosing encapsulated peritonitis . Peritoneal encapsulation (PE) is a rare congenital anomaly that is formed due to an accessory peritoneal layer encapsulating the small bowel. EPS is most frequently seen in patients treated with or having a history of PD. We report an otherwise well 38-year-old man who presented with two episodes of intestinal obstruction about two months apart.

Peritoneal encapsulation is a rare congenital anomaly characterised by a thin membrane of peritoneum encasing the small bowel to form an accessory peritoneal sac. 5 Although usually asymptomatic, peritoneal encapsulation can present with recurrent episodes of colicky . The abnormal peritoneum was consistent with the PE syndrome. Introduction . Peritoneal encapsulation syndrome: A case report and literature review. Peritoneal encapsulation is an anatomical anomaly, in contrast to SEP or abdominal cocoon syndrome, which are of inflammatory origin. However, some studies have found an increased frequency in patients undergoing . 1 2 A result of abnormal rotation of . Diagnosis is remarkably difficult due to absence of symptoms, nonspecific symptoms or less frequently, intestinal obstruction. INTRODUCTION: Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis is a pathological entity mainly associated with peritoneal dialysis (PD). This was first described in 1868 by Cleland [1]. Congenital peritoneal encapsulation (CPE) is a rare pathological condition, characterized by an accessory peritoneal flap that encloses the entire mass of the small intestine. We present a case of peritoneal encapsulation diagnosed incidentally in an 82 year old man undergoing laparotomy for colonic cancer. Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a rare but serious condition that results in (a) encapsulation of bowel within a thickened fibrocollagenous peritoneal membrane and (b) recurrent episodes of bowel obstruction. • The combined occurrence of idiopathic sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis and peritoneal encapsulation is described. Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS), also known as abdominal cocoon syndrome (AC) or sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis (SEP), is an uncommon condition typically presenting with features of bowel obstruction. Kinking of bowel within the accessory peritoneal layer or adhesions between the bowel loops and the peritoneal layer causes symptoms ranging from colicky abdominal pain to rarely intestinal obstruction. Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a clinical syndrome characterized by intestinal encapsulating and subsequent obstruction of the intestinal tract by formation of excessive peritoneal fibrosis tissue .

A problem encapsulated: The rare peritoneal encapsulation syndrome By Min-Hoe Chew Coexistence of abdominal cocoon, intestinal perforation and incarcerated Meckel's diverticulum in an inguinal hernia: A troublesome condition. Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a clinical syndrome where a thickened fibro-collagenous peritoneal membrane can encase parts of the small intestine, leading to recurrent small bowel obstructions and malnutrition. Idiopathic sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis or abdominal cocoon syndrome (ACS) is a rare anatomical deformity characterized by the partial or complete encasement of the small intestine with fibrotic peritoneum. Abstract. The results of preoperative examinations were suggestive of sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis. J Mordehai, O Kleiner, B Kirshtein, Y Barki, A J Mares Journal of Pediatric Surgery 2001, 36 (7): 1059-61 Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a chronic clinical syndrome of acute or subacute gastrointestinal obstruction seen mainly in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis. A case of peritoneal encapsulation syndrome . The patient did well post operatively and was subsequently discharged.Peritoneal encapsulation is an aberration of peritoneal development that is frequently confused with other visceral encapsulation syndromes of inflammatory origin. Peritoneal Dialysis-related Infections Recommendations: 2010 Update. EPS is defined as a clinical syndrome with major signs of gastrointestinal obstruction, inflammatory parameters, radiological and . First described by Cleland in 1868, PES is a congenital condition characterised by small bowel encasement in an accessory, but otherwise normal peritoneal membrane.

Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis is a rare benign cause of acute or subacute small bowel obstruction. We present the case of a 41-year-old male patient who presented to the accident and emergency department with a 7-day history of . Conclusion Peritoneal encapsulation is a rare, mostly asymptomatic, surgical finding which may predispose patients to an acute abdominal crisis. Peritoneal encapsulation (PE) is a rare congenital malformation, characterized by a thin accessory peritoneal membrane which covers all or part of the small bowel, forming an accessory peritoneal sac. To date, literature describing the association between this condition and chronic beta-blocker therapy is scarce. Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a chronic clinical syndrome of insidious onset, presenting late as chronic malnourishment with signs and symptoms of intermittent, acute or sub-acute gastrointestinal obstruction (Augustine et al., 2009).It appears to be a multifactorial disease with several initiating factors that are significant at the different stages of the disease.

The main difference with peritoneal encapsulation is histopathological. Congenital peritoneal encapsulation is a rare congenital malformation in which all or part of the small bowel is covered by a thin accessory peritoneal membrane. [1], it was mostly described in young adolescent girls, probably in relation to retrograde menstruation [2,3]. Mitrousias, Vasileios, et al. Being first detailed in 1978 by Foo et al. 393-423. More Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is an uncommon than the result of inflammation should be considered with chronic syndrome, usually presenting clinically as inter- a duplication of the peritoneum; this is found incidentally mittent, acute or sub-acute gastrointestinal obstruction in the majority of cases. It was first described by Ghandi et al in 1980. Most cases are asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally during surgery and/or autopsy. 24, no. This was first described in 1868 by Cleland [1].
