Absence or altered distribution of the interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs) has been described in association with intestinal pseudoobstruction in adults. We report the first pediatric case with regional absence of ICCs in the distal small bowel and colon associated with intestinal pseudoobstruction. This report highlights that abnormalities of the ICCs in intestinal pseudoobstruction should be considered early in the diagnostic workup of children with intestinal pseudoobstruction.
在成人中,已发现空肠弯曲菌间质细胞(ICCs)缺失或分布改变与肠道假性梗阻有关。我们报告了首例远端小肠和结肠区域ICC缺失并伴有肠道假性梗阻的儿科病例。本报告强调,在对患有肠道假性梗阻的儿童进行诊断检查时,应尽早考虑肠道假性梗阻中ICC的异常情况。
