    Abstract Spinal cord injury and neurogenic bowel dysfunction (NBD) are life-changing events for affected patients. The clinical manifestations of NBD vary depending on the level and severity of the spinal cord lesion. Managing patients with NBD can be complicated by comorbidities, such as immobility, bladder dysfunction, progressive neurologic decline, psychological factors, loss of independence, and social withdrawal, and ideally involves a multimodal, multidisciplinary approach. Evaluation and management should be individualized, depending on the residual neurologic capabilities of the patient and their predominant gastrointestinal symptoms, and commonly involves lifestyle modifications, physical therapy, laxative medications, and surgical interventions.

    Abstract Pneumoperitoneum can be an alarming radiological finding and a manifestation of a surgical emergency that warrant urgent intervention, or it can be a manifestation of chronic benign condition that can be managed conservatively. The sequela of misdiagnosing pneumoperitoneum due to surgical abdomen as a chronic benign pneumoperitoneum can be life-threatening and misdiagnosing chronic spontaneous pneumoperitoneum due to chronic condition as surgical emergency will lead to unnecessary surgical interventions. Diagnosis of chronic spontaneous pneumoperitoneum can be challenging to the unwary healthcare-providers. We present a case of chronic pneumoperitoneum secondary to pneumatosis cystoides intestinalis that has been managed conservatively.

    Abstract This article reviews alternative colorectal cancer (CRC) screening tests, including flexible sigmoidoscopy (FS), computed tomography (CT) colonography, and colon capsule endoscopy. FS has abundant and convincing evidence supporting its use for CRC screening and is a commonly used CRC test worldwide. CT colonography has demonstrated convincing results for CRC screening, but concerns regarding cost, accuracy for flat or sessile neoplasia, reproducibility, extracolonic findings, and lack of coverage have limited its use and development. Colon capsule endoscopy has demonstrated encouraging results for polyp detection in average-risk individuals, but is not approved for CRC screening at the current time.

    Abstract A biliary enteric fistula (BEF) is a rare, abnormal communication between any segment of the biliary tree with any portion of the small or large intestine. BEF is more frequently diagnosed with the increasingly widespread use of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. Different theories have been postulated regarding the etiology of this fistula formation, with the most likely cause being gallstones. Treatment modalities, ranging from conservative management to surgical reconstruction, show varying levels of success. We present a case of BEF secondary to large common bile duct stones, successfully treated with endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) followed by papillary balloon dilatation, and we briefly discuss large stone retrieval in the setting of atypical anatomy.

    Abstract While erythromycin has caused numerous cases of acute liver failure (ALF), clarithromycin, a similar macrolide antibiotic, has caused only six reported cases of ALF. A new case of clarithromycin-associated ALF is reported with hepatic histopathology and exclusion of other etiologies by extensive workup, and the syndrome of clarithromycin-associated ALF is better characterized by systematic review. A 60-year-old nonalcoholic man, with normal baseline liver function tests, was admitted with diffuse abdominal pain and AST = 499 U/L and ALT = 539 U/L, six days after completing a 7-day course of clarithromycin 500 mg twice daily for suspected upper respiratory infection. AST and ALT each rose to about 1,000 U/L on day-2 of admission, and rose to ≥6,000 U/L on day-3, with development of severe hepatic encephalopathy and severe coagulopathy. Planned liver biopsy was cancelled due to coagulopathies. Extensive evaluation for infectious, immunologic, and metabolic causes of liver disease was negative. Abdominal computerized tomography and abdominal ultrasound with Doppler were unremarkable. The patient developed massive, acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding associated with coagulopathies. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy was planned after massive blood product transfusions, but the patient rapidly expired from hemorrhagic shock. Autopsy revealed a golden-brown heavy liver with massive hepatic necrosis and sinusoidal congestion. Rise of AST/ALT to about 1,000 U/L each was temporally incompatible with shock liver because this rise preceded the hemorrhagic shock, but the subsequent AST/ALT rise to ≥6,000 U/L each may have had a component of shock liver. The six previously reported cases were limited by failure to exclude hepatitis E (4), lack of liver biopsy (2), and uninterpretable liver biopsy (1) and by confounding potential etiologies including disulfiram, israpidine, or recent acetaminophen use (3), clarithromycin overdose (1), active alcohol use (1), and severe heart failure (1). Review of 6 previously reported and current case of clarithromycin-associated ALF revealed that patients had AST and ALT values in the thousands. Five patients died and 2 survived.
