It is often difficult to clinically differentiate this condition from gastrointestinal perforation, sometimes resulting in emergency surgery. Imaging studies are important to establish the differential diagnosis. However, there have been few studies showing the efficacy of computed tomography (CT) colonography in diagnosing pneumatosis. We report a case of intestinal pneumatosis in which CT colonography was of significant diagnostic value. A 43-year-old man was referred to our hospital for a detailed investigation of multiple submucosal tumor-like lesions associated with multiple pneumatosis from the cecum to the ascending colon. These lesions were revealed by colonoscopy performed in another hospital on May 21, 2008. Abdominal 3-dimensional CT showed multiple pneumatic lesions from the cecum to the ascending colon, and the patient was diagnosed as having intestinal pneumatosis. The patient is being followed conservatively because he is asymptomatic.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.9738\/1379.1","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,12,13]],"date-time":"2012-12-13T18:35:30Z","timestamp":1355423730000},"page":"217-219","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Intestinal Pneumatosis in Which CT Colonography Was of Significant Diagnostic Value: Case Report"],"prefix":"10.9738","volume":"96","author":[{"given":"Ryu","family":"Shimada","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Teikyo University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tamuro","family":"Hayama","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Teikyo University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Norihito","family":"Yamazaki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Teikyo University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Takuya","family":"Akahane","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Teikyo University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Atushi","family":"Horiuchi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Teikyo University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hajime","family":"Shibuya","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Teikyo University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hideki","family":"Yamada","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Teikyo University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Soichiro","family":"Ishihara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Teikyo University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Keijiro","family":"Nozawa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Teikyo University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Keiji","family":"Matsuda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Teikyo University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Toshiaki","family":"Watanabe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Teikyo University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"4721","reference":[{"issue":"5","key":"i0020-8868-96-3-217-Liao1","series-title":"Am J Emerg Med","first-page":"645 e1","article-title":"The early presence of pneumatosis in traumatic colonic perforation: a sequential computed tomography demonstration.","volume":"28","author":"Liao, YT","year":"2010","unstructured":"Liao, YT, LinTH, and KoWJ.
