Introduction
Intestinal lymphangiectasis's disease in children and young adults at which the increase lymphatic vessels that supply the mucous membrane of the small intestine.
Increase lymphatic vessels may be a flaw at birth or later in life may be caused by inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis) or stiffening sack around the heart, the pericardium (constrictive pericarditis), which increases the pressure in the lymphatic system.
Symptoms and diagnosis of
persons with lymphangiectasis has a very fluid retention (edema) because the tissue fluid can not drain effectively through increased but narrowed lymphatic vessels. Island can unequally affect parts of the body depending on which lymphatic vessels affected, eg fluid can accumulate in the abdominal and pleural space.
Can occur nausea, mild diarrhea and abdominal pain. The blood can reduce the number of lymphocytes. Get the protein, because the lifne swollen lymph vessels coming into the intestine, and the chair and the level of protein in the blood decreased. Low levels of protein can cause further tissue swelling. Levels of cholesterol in the blood may be abnormally low because the cholesterol from food is not well absorbed. Some people have oily stools. To help diagnose the disease the doctor may use an intravenous injection of radioactively labeled albumin. If the stools an abnormal amount of a radioactive substance, a person has excessive loss of protein. Biopsy of the small intestine showed that lymphatic vessels increased. Treating Intestinal lymphangiectasis is treated by removing the cause of increasing limfhih vessels, such as the treatment of pericarditis konstriktivnog can relieve pressure on the lymph vessels. Some people recover by taking food with low fat content and taking supplements of some triglycerides, which are absorbed directly into the blood, and not through the lymph vessels. If only a small part of the intestine can be removed by surgery.
