Enteroptosis

Enteroptosis is an abnormal arrangement of intestinal loops, mainly the transverse colon. Those. with enteroptosis, a transverse displacement of the intestine occurs, which is usually located above each other of the small and large intestines. The defect occurs during intrauterine development. The frequency of detected congenital intestines is very low—does not exceed 2% of cases.

The intestinal loops may be elongated, narrowed, distended, or located too low above the spine. When diagnosing enteroptosis, migration of the colonic flexure of the intestine is assessed. The disease itself manifests itself

What is endoptosis

Enteroptosis is a condition where loops of intestine are located below the anatomical position, especially in the transverse colon. This occurs due to the downward displacement of the stomach and intestines due to several reasons. Usually this condition does not require treatment, as it does not threaten human health. However, it can cause discomfort and lead to more serious health problems if other conditions are present.

Symptoms of endoptosis

- Frequent feeling of nausea and vomiting. - Bloating and abdominal pain. - Discomfort in the abdominal area. - Heartburn and belching.

Treatment of endoptosis

The patient will be prescribed a diet low in fat and carbohydrates. Medications that reduce inflammation and pain are also prescribed. As a rule, this leads to a significant improvement in the patient's condition, however, some types of enteroptosis may require surgical correction. Surgical treatment may be required in the following cases:

1. If symptoms worsen and do not improve with diet and medication. 2. If intestinal size begins to affect bowel function. 3. If enteroptosis is causing other health problems such as ulcers, constipation or bloating.

The other day I heard about such a diagnosis as enteroptosis or Enteroptosis. What kind of disease is this? How does it manifest itself? Why is it dangerous? Let's figure it out.

Enteroptosis is a condition when the intestinal loops take on an incorrect anatomical position and are located below normal. With this disease, another defect is often detected - short transverse
