Abstract

Primary objective: To report a case of pneumatosis intestinalis complicated with sorbitol containing medicines. Research design: Case report. Methods and procedures: Clinical course and literature review. Experimental interventions: Chart review. Main outcomes and results: Large amount of sorbital may cause a reversible gastrointestinal complication, pneumatosis intestinalis. Conclusions: In the assessment of enteral abnormalities, all components of medications, active and 'inactive', must be evaluated as possible aetiological factors of pneumatosis intestinalis.
