Abstract

Typhlitis, also known as neutropenic enterocolitis, is a rare but serious condition characterized by inflammation of the cecum causing right lower quadrant (RLQ) pain and fever. It typically affects immunocompromised patients with neutropenia, hematologic malignancies, AIDS, or those on immunosuppressive therapy. This is an entity that should be considered in any differential for a patient with febrile RLQ pain, not just those with obvious immunosuppression.

摘要

盲肠炎，也称为中性粒细胞减少性小肠结肠炎，是一种罕见但严重的病症，其特征是盲肠发炎，导致右下腹（RLQ）疼痛和发热。它通常影响患有中性粒细胞减少症、血液系统恶性肿瘤、艾滋病的免疫功能低下患者，或接受免疫抑制治疗的患者。对于任何出现发热性右下腹疼痛的患者，在鉴别诊断时都应考虑到这种病症，而不仅仅是那些有明显免疫抑制的患者。
