Overview
Surgery is not the first line treatment option for patients with celiac disease. Surgery is usually reserved for patients with refractory or pre-malignant complications, such as Enteropathy Associated T-cell Lymphoma (EATL) and ulcerative jejunitis (UJ). EATL patients presenting with ulcerative lesions, stenotic lesions, and perforation needs surgical intervention. Surgery also serves as a pre-therapy in order to prevent perforation of the small bowel during chemotherapy in case of EATL[1]. After surgery patients receive immunotherapy, chemotherapy and/or stem cell transplantation.[2][3]
Surgery
Indications
- Perforation
- Stenosis
- Refractory enteropathy associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL)
- Refractory ulcerative jejunitis (UJ)
Procedure
- The small bowel is resected either by a laparoscopic or a laparotomy procedure depending on the location, the setting (elective/acute) and the preference of the surgeon performing the intervention. [2][3][4]
- Mobilization and transection of the bowel are performed and the involved segment resected if possible.
- Resectability is assessed peri-operatively and has three types:
- Radical: Complete resection of the mass.
- Partial: Some but not all of the mass is resected.
- Unresectable: Inability to resect any part of the mass.
