Can intestinal tuberculosis cause right ventricular hypertrophy

summary

Some patients with intestinal tuberculosis are worried about other complications caused by intestinal tuberculosis, such as right ventricular hypertrophy. We all know that the emergence of intestinal tuberculosis is mainly due to the infection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, complications can not make right ventricular hypertrophy, let's talk about intestinal tuberculosis can cause right ventricular hypertrophy.

Can intestinal tuberculosis cause right ventricular hypertrophy

First: intestinal obstruction is the most common complication of the disease, mainly occurs in proliferative intestinal tuberculosis, ulcerative intestinal tuberculosis due to adjacent peritoneum adhesion make intestinal curvature subject to traction, restraint and compression, or because of intestinal ulcer healing and scar contraction, can make intestinal cavity stenosis cause obstruction, obstruction is mostly chronic progressive, often for some patients, the degree of different, delay time is long, can be serious It can affect the nutritional status of patients, and a few of them can develop to complete intestinal obstruction.

Second: the incidence of intestinal perforation is lower than that of intestinal obstruction, mainly subacute or chronic perforation, which can form abscess in the abdominal cavity and form intestinal fistula after ulceration. Acute perforation is rare, which often occurs in the extremely dilated intestinal flexure near the obstruction, or in the atresia intestinal obstruction caused by multi segment intestinal stenosis. Although ulcerative intestinal tuberculosis has tissue adhesion around the intestinal flexure, the ulcer generally does not penetrate into the free space abdominal cavity.

Third: but in the rapid development of the disease, poor body reaction, the ulcer can penetrate deep, causing acute perforation. Intestinal tuberculosis can also cause other complications, such as peritonitis, intestinal adhesion, intussusception and contractile diverticulum. Serious cases may lead to physical dysfunction, so that many people can not live a normal life.

matters needing attention

The above examples show that the occurrence of intestinal tuberculosis can cause other complications, the most common are intestinal obstruction and perforation. Therefore, there is no evidence of right ventricular hypertrophy. However, intestinal tuberculosis needs to be controlled in time, so as not to be more serious and endanger life safety.
