Neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) is a rare subtype of prostate cancer (PCa) that usually results in poor clinical outcomes and may be accompanied by paraneoplastic syndromes (PNS). NEPC is becoming more frequent. It can initially manifest as PNS, complicating diagnosis. Therefore, we reviewed the literature on the different PNS associated with NEPC. We systematically reviewed English-language articles from January 2017 to September 2023, identifying 17 studies meeting PRISMA guidelines for NEPC and associated PNS...

The megacystis-microcolon-intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome (MMIHS), also known as Berdon syndrome, is a rare congenital condition that falls within the spectrum of visceral myopathies. It is characterized by the presence of megacystis, microcolon, and hypoperistalsis, which are secondary to gastrointestinal and urinary system dysmotility. It is frequently associated with other alterations in the gastrointestinal and genitourinary tracts. Although it is possible to make the diagnosis in the prenatal period, most cases are diagnosed after birth through genetic and imaging studies...

Lori B Dershowitz, Julia A Kaltschmidt
The enteric nervous system (ENS) controls gastrointestinal (GI) motility, and defects in ENS development underlie pediatric GI motility disorders. In disorders such as Hirschsprung's disease (HSCR), pediatric intestinal pseudo-obstruction (PIPO), and intestinal neuronal dysplasia type B (INDB), ENS structure is altered with noted decreased neuronal density in HSCR and reports of increased neuronal density in PIPO and INDB. The developmental origin of these structural deficits is not fully understood. Here, we review the current understanding of ENS development and pediatric GI motility disorders incorporating new data on ENS structure...

Idiopathic chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (CIPO) is associated with intestinal inflammation and malabsorption and may cause serum vitamin D deficiency. We aimed to assess whether there is an association between idiopathic CIPO and serum levels of 25-hydroxy-vitamin D. Consecutive patients with confirmed diagnosis of idiopathic CIPO were prospectively enrolled and matched with healthy controls by gender, age, and BMI. Median serum level of 25-hydroxy-vitamin D of patients with CIPO was compared with that of healthy subjects using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test for matched samples...

BACKGROUND: Intestinal obstruction is a common occurrence in clinical practice. However, the occurrence of herpes zoster complicated by intestinal obstruction after abdominal surgery is exceedingly rare. In the diagnostic and treatment process, clinicians consider it crucial to identify the primary causes of its occurrence to ensure effective treatment and avoiding misdiagnosis. CASE SUMMARY: Herein, we present the case of a 40-year-old female patient with intestinal obstruction who underwent laparoscopic appendectomy and developed herpes zoster after surgery...

Gastrointestinal involvement in systemic sclerosis can be severe, reaching the critical point of chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction, secondary to major disorders of small bowel motility. It is associated with some clinical and biological characteristics, in particular the positivity of anti-fibrillarin/U3RNP antibodies. Chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (CIPO) is complicated by a small intestinal bacterial overgrowth that requires cyclic antibiotic therapy. CIPO leads to a reduction of the food intake, due to painful symptoms, nausea and vomiting caused by meals, and ultimately to severe malnutrition...

UNLABELLED: MELAS - an acronym for mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes - is a multiorgan disease caused by a mutation in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Its clinical manifestations are highly variable; mainly stroke-like episodes, seizures, recurrent headaches, or muscle weakness. However, gastrointestinal complications such as chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (IPO), pancreatitis, gastroparesis and hepatopathy are also common. In this report we describe a young patient with gastrointestinal complication of MELAS which led to superior mesenteric artery syndrome (SMAS)...

BACKGROUND: Pediatric chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (PIPO) is a rare disease characterized by symptoms and radiological signs suggestive of intestinal obstruction, in the absence of lumen-occluding lesions. It results from an extremely severe impairment of propulsive motility. The intestinal endocrine system (IES) jointly with the enteric nervous system (ENS) regulates secreto-motor functions via different hormones and bioactive messengers/neurotransmitters. The neurotransmitter 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) (or serotonin) is linked to intestinal peristalsis and secretory reflexes...

Acute colonic pseudo-obstruction or Ogilvie's syndrome is a disorder causing massive colonic dilation with no evidence of mechanical obstruction. The actual incidence of acute colonic pseudo-obstruction is unclear; However, electrolyte imbalance, psychiatric disorders, the use of medications such as anticholinergics or antipsychotics, and recent abdominal surgery are the most common predisposing factors associated with this syndrome. Ogilvie's syndrome is most likely caused due to impairment of the gut's motor system and an imbalance of the autonomic nervous system including a reduction in the activity of stimulatory neurotransmitters...

Patients who present with nausea, vomiting, constipation, and abdominal pain typically undergo workups for small bowel obstruction (SBO). SBO is commonly caused by mechanical obstruction due to adhesions, inflammatory conditions, or malignancies. Hypothyroidism is primarily associated with decreased basal metabolic rate and rarely, in severe cases, gastrointestinal motility dysfunction. We report a case of a 44-year-old man who presented to the emergency department with abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting...

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a systemic, autoimmune, multisystem disease. Lupus enteritis accompanied by intestinal pseudo-obstruction (IPO) is a serious and rare initial manifestation that can lead to high mortality and morbidity in case of delay in diagnosis and treatment. Here, we present a very complicated case of a 36-year-old female Pakistani patient with lupus enteritis accompanied by IPO and bilateral hydronephroureter. The patient had a three-month history of fever, weight loss, recurrent diarrhea, vomiting, alopecia, and photosensitivity...

A 43-year-old woman experienced acute nausea, diarrhea, and abdominal pain, leading her to our hospital. No relevant medical history or physical abnormalities were noted. Symptoms persisted for a month, causing weight loss and abdominal bloating. CT scans revealed distension throughout the gastrointestinal tract without stenosis. Intestinal pseudo-obstruction and aerophagia were suspected. MR enterography confirmed normal gastric and intestinal motility, diagnosing the condition as aerophagia-induced gastrointestinal distention...

Patients with mitochondrial myopathy, encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes (MELAS), a mitochondrial disease, develop various types of organ failure, including intestinal pseudo-obstruction (IPO). We treated a patient with IPO that improved with total parenteral nutrition.  A 20-year-old woman with a two-year history of diabetes mellitus was taking sitagliptin but her hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels began increasing. After receiving metformin, she suffered a stroke-like attack and was diagnosed with MELAS...

Postoperative ileus and chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction are intestinal motility disorders that can compromise bowel function resulting in a significant reduction in quality of life and prolonged hospital stays. While medication and nutritional support provides relief for some patients, a significant patient population remains untreated. Therefore, alternative treatment options are required. A novel framework that enables small intestine pacing and video mapping of the contractile response was developed...

Dilatation of the gut occurs in response to either mechanical obstruction or aperistalsis. The hallmark features are symptoms of bowel obstruction with vomiting, constipation, abdominal pain and distension. This review will primarily deal with the non-mechanical causes of gut dilatation, both intestinal and colonic, and differentiate between acute and chronic presentations.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Although chronic diarrhea and constipation are common, the treatment is symptomatic as their pathophysiology is poorly understood. Accumulating evidence suggests that the microbiota modulates gut function but the underlying mechanisms are unknown. We therefore investigated the pathways by which microbiota modulates gastrointestinal motility in different sections of the alimentary tract. METHODS: Gastric emptying, intestinal transit, muscle contractility, acetylcholine release, gene expression and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) immunoreactivity were assessed in wild-type and Myd88-/- Trif-/- mice in germ-free, gnotobiotic and SPF conditions...

Gastrointestinal pseudo-obstruction (GIPO) is a phenotype of the paraneoplastic neurological syndrome (PNS). We herein report a case of small-cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) with GIPO elicited by an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI). A 75-year-old man with SCLC developed intractable intestinal obstruction after receiving one course of anticancer drugs (durvalumab, etoposide, and carboplatin). The serum anti-Hu antibody (Hu-Ab) was positive, and the patient was diagnosed with GIPO. Corticosteroid treatment did not improve the GIPO, and the patient died...
