A case of sulindac-induced enteropathy resulting in jejunal perforation.

Annals of the Academy of Medicine, Singapore, 1998, Volume: 27, Issue:1

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely prescribed for rheumatic conditions. Their effects on the upper gastrointestinal tract are well recognised. Clinically important damage to the small intestines is less common and often unrecognised. We report a case of sulindac-induced jejunal perforation in a rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patient with previous gastrectomy for gastric carcinoma. The prevalence, diagnosis, pathogenesis and treatment options of NSAID-induced enteropathy will be discussed.
