Limfadenitis mezenterialny
Objawy

Limfadenitis mezenterialny to zapalenie węzłów chłonnych krezki, najczęściej występujące u dzieci i młodzieży poniżej 20. roku życia. Choroba charakteryzuje się bólem brzucha, zwykle w prawym dolnym kwadrancie, który może mieć charakter tępy lub skurczowy, często mylonym z zapaleniem wyrostka robaczkowego. Towarzyszą mu objawy takie jak gorączka (zazwyczaj <38,5°C), nudności, wymioty, biegunka, tkliwość jamy brzusznej, podwyższona leukocytoza oraz ogólne złe samopoczucie. Objawy pojawiają się często po infekcji górnych dróg oddechowych, a nudności i wymioty zwykle poprzedzają ból brzucha, co odróżnia limfadenitis od zapalenia wyrostka. Przebieg jest zazwyczaj łagodny i samoograniczający się, z ustępowaniem symptomów w ciągu 1-4 tygodni, choć u około 50% pacjentów objawy mogą utrzymywać się od 3 do 10 tygodni. Pełny powrót do zdrowia następuje zwykle po 4 tygodniach lub dłużej, bez długotrwałych następstw.

Limfadenitis mezenterialny – charakterystyka

Limfadenitis mezenterialny (węzłów chłonnych krezki” class=”to-tag” data-termid=”84947″>zapalenie węzłów chłonnych krezki) to stan zapalny węzłów chłonnych znajdujących się w jamie brzusznej, dokładniej w krezce – fałdzie tkanki łącznej, która łączy jelita ze ścianą jamy brzusznej. Jest to schorzenie występujące głównie u dzieci i młodzieży, rzadko dotyka osoby powyżej 20. roku życia.12 Przebieg choroby może być różny w zależności od wieku pacjenta oraz właściwości patogennych czynników wywołujących zapalenie. Początek i progresja limfadenitis mezenterialnego mogą być powolne lub niekiedy gwałtowne.3

Objawy limfadenitis mezenterialnego

Objawy limfadenitis mezenterialnego mogą różnić się pod względem nasilenia – od łagodnych do ciężkich.4 Najczęstsze dolegliwości towarzyszące temu schorzeniu obejmują:

Ból brzucha

Ból brzucha jest najczęstszym i najbardziej charakterystycznym objawem limfadenitis mezenterialnego. Często jest zlokalizowany w prawym dolnym kwadrancie jamy brzusznej, choć może być również bardziej rozlany.56 U dzieci ból może być odczuwany jako tętniące uczucie w dolnej prawej części brzucha lub w innych obszarach jamy brzusznej.7 Dla wielu pacjentów ból ma charakter tępy lub skurczowy.8 Ze względu na lokalizację i charakter bólu, limfadenitis mezenterialny często bywa mylony z zapaleniem wyrostka robaczkowego.910

Dodatkowe objawy

Oprócz bólu brzucha, u pacjentów z limfadenitis mezenterialnym mogą występować następujące objawy:

  • Tkliwość jamy brzusznej, szczególnie w miejscu, gdzie znajdują się powiększone węzły chłonne1112
  • Gorączka – zazwyczaj niezbyt wysoka w porównaniu z poważniejszymi infekcjami systemowymi1314
  • Nudności i wymioty1516
  • Biegunka1718
  • Ogólne złe samopoczucie (malaise)1920
  • Utrata apetytu2122
  • Zmęczenie lub brak energii2324
  • Podwyższona liczba białych krwinek2526
  • Utrata masy ciała (w niektórych przypadkach)2728

Często objawy limfadenitis mezenterialnego pojawiają się po przebytej infekcji górnych dróg oddechowych, przeziębieniu lub infekcji wirusowej.2930 Charakterystyczne jest to, że nudności i wymioty zazwyczaj poprzedzają ból brzucha, w przeciwieństwie do zapalenia wyrostka robaczkowego, gdzie ból pojawia się najpierw.31

Przebieg i czas trwania choroby

Limfadenitis mezenterialny ma zazwyczaj łagodny i samoograniczający się przebieg. Większość przypadków ustępuje samoistnie bez specyficznego leczenia.3233

Typowy przebieg choroby

Większość dzieci z limfadenitis mezenterialnym dochodzi do zdrowia bez leczenia w ciągu 1-4 tygodni.3435 Jednak badania wskazują na bimodalny rozkład czasu trwania objawów:

  • U części pacjentów objawy utrzymują się przez około 2 tygodnie36
  • U pozostałych objawy mogą trwać od 3 do 10 tygodni3738

Pełny powrót do zdrowia najczęściej zajmuje 4 tygodnie lub dłużej.3940 Ważne jest to, że stan ten nie powoduje żadnych długotrwałych efektów po wyzdrowieniu.4142

Typowa progresja objawów

W przebiegu limfadenitis mezenterialnego można zaobserwować następującą progresję objawów:

  1. Często przed wystąpieniem bólu brzucha występują objawy infekcji górnych dróg oddechowych, takie jak ból gardła4344
  2. Nudności i wymioty często poprzedzają ból brzucha45
  3. Następnie rozwija się ból brzucha, zazwyczaj w prawym dolnym kwadrancie46
  4. Mogą pojawić się gorączka i inne objawy ogólnoustrojowe47
  5. Objawy zazwyczaj zaczynają ustępować po kilku dniach, choć mogą się utrzymywać przez kilka tygodni4849

Czas trwania objawów i zdrowienie

W większości przypadków limfadenitis mezenterialnego:

  • Objawy zaczynają ustępować po kilku dniach5051
  • Pełne ustąpienie objawów następuje w ciągu 2-4 tygodni5253
  • W około połowie przypadków objawy mogą utrzymywać się od 3 do 10 tygodni54
  • W ostrych przypadkach objawy mogą ustąpić w ciągu jednego tygodnia55

Większość dzieci z limfadenitis mezenterialnym nie czuje się wystarczająco dobrze, aby chodzić do szkoły lub uczestniczyć w regularnych zajęciach podczas choroby, szczególnie jeśli występują u nich objawy nudności, wymiotów i/lub biegunki. Mogą wrócić do szkoły i normalnych zajęć, gdy tylko objawy ustąpią. Niektóre dzieci mogą potrzebować więcej odpoczynku niż zwykle, dopóki nie wyzdrowieją w pełni.56

Kiedy szukać pomocy medycznej

Choć limfadenitis mezenterialny zazwyczaj ustępuje samoistnie, w pewnych sytuacjach należy pilnie skonsultować się z lekarzem. Jest to szczególnie ważne, ponieważ objawy tego schorzenia mogą przypominać stany wymagające natychmiastowej interwencji medycznej, takie jak zapalenie wyrostka robaczkowego.57

Objawy wymagające natychmiastowej konsultacji

Należy niezwłocznie skontaktować się z lekarzem, jeśli u dziecka występują:

  • Nagły, silny ból brzucha5859
  • Ból brzucha z towarzyszącą gorączką6061
  • Ból brzucha z biegunką lub wymiotami6263
  • Tkliwość brzucha przy dotyku6465
  • Krwista lub bordowa stolec6667
  • Wysoka gorączka (powyżej 38,5°C)68
  • Objawy odwodnienia69

Objawy wymagające dalszej obserwacji

Należy również skontaktować się z lekarzem, jeśli u dziecka występuje ból brzucha, który nie ustępuje w krótkim czasie, a dodatkowo obserwuje się:

  • Zmianę w rytmie wypróżnień7071
  • Utratę apetytu7273
  • Niemożność zaśnięcia z powodu bólu7475
  • Objawy, które się nasilają lub utrzymują przez dłuższy czas76
  • Znaczna utrata masy ciała77

W przypadku kobiet w wieku rozrodczym ważne jest, aby wykluczyć ciążę pozamaciczną, która może dawać podobne objawy jak limfadenitis mezenterialny.78

Powikłania limfadenitis mezenterialnego

W większości przypadków limfadenitis mezenterialny jest łagodnym schorzeniem, które nie prowadzi do poważnych powikłań.79 Jednak w rzadkich przypadkach mogą wystąpić następujące komplikacje:

  • Odwodnienie i zaburzenia elektrolitowe u pacjentów z ciężką biegunką, nudnościami i wymiotami8081
  • Tworzenie się ropni82
  • Zapalenie otrzewnej (rzadko)83
  • Posocznica84
  • Bóle stawów (artralgia) – zwłaszcza w przypadkach wywołanych przez Y. enterocolitica. Objawy te zazwyczaj rozwijają się około miesiąca po początkowym epizodzie biegunki i zazwyczaj ustępują po 1-6 miesiącach85
  • Wysypka na nogach i/lub tułowiu (rumień guzowaty), która również ustępuje samoistnie86
  • W bardzo rzadkich przypadkach powiększone węzły chłonne krezki mogą prowadzić do zaburzeń naczyniowych, powodujących niedokrwienne zapalenie okrężnicy87

Warto podkreślić, że powikłania są rzadkie, a większość pacjentów z limfadenitis mezenterialnym wraca do pełnego zdrowia bez interwencji medycznej.88

Czynniki predysponujące i grupy ryzyka

Limfadenitis mezenterialny występuje głównie u dzieci i młodzieży poniżej 15 roku życia, rzadko dotyka osoby powyżej 20 roku życia.8990 Niektóre badania sugerują, że chłopcy mogą być nieco częściej dotknięci tym schorzeniem niż dziewczynki.91

Czynniki zwiększające ryzyko rozwoju limfadenitis mezenterialnego obejmują:

  • Niedawno przebyte infekcje górnych dróg oddechowych9293
  • Infekcje przewodu pokarmowego94
  • Kontakt z zanieczyszczoną żywnością lub wodą95
  • Zdiagnozowane choroby zapalne jelit (IBD) lub chłoniak96

Interesujący jest fakt, że występowanie limfadenitis mezenterialnego w dzieciństwie lub w okresie dojrzewania wiąże się ze znacznie zmniejszonym ryzykiem wrzodziejącego zapalenia jelita grubego w wieku dorosłym.97

Zespół ogólnoustrojowej reakcji zapalnej a limfadenitis mezenterialny

Zespół ogólnoustrojowej reakcji zapalnej (SIRS – Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome) może towarzyszyć limfadenitis mezenerialnemu, choć nie jest to częste zjawisko. Zgodnie z badaniami, około 20,7% pacjentów z limfadenitis mezenterialnym spełnia kryteria SIRS.98

Najczęściej spełniane kryteria SIRS u pacjentów z limfadenitis mezenterialnym to:

  • Gorączka99
  • Podwyższona liczba białych krwinek100
  • Przyspieszone tętno101
  • Przyspieszona częstość oddechów102

Pacjenci, u których rozwinął się SIRS, częściej wymagają hospitalizacji i mają większe prawdopodobieństwo współistniejących radiologicznych chorób towarzyszących.103 Choć limfadenitis mezenterialny i SIRS są zasadniczo odrębnymi stanami, ich współwystępowanie w scenariuszach klinicznych podkreśla znaczenie czujnej oceny i postępowania w celu zapobiegania potencjalnie zagrażającym życiu powikłaniom.104

Podsumowanie objawów i przebiegu limfadenitis mezenterialnego

Limfadenitis mezenterialny jest zazwyczaj łagodnym, samoograniczającym się schorzeniem, które głównie dotyka dzieci i młodzież. Charakteryzuje się zapaleniem węzłów chłonnych w krezce, co prowadzi do bólu brzucha, często zlokalizowanego w prawym dolnym kwadrancie jamy brzusznej, co może przypominać zapalenie wyrostka robaczkowego.105106

Główne objawy obejmują ból brzucha, gorączkę, nudności, wymioty, biegunkę i ogólne złe samopoczucie. Objawy często pojawiają się po przebytej infekcji górnych dróg oddechowych.107108

W większości przypadków choroba ustępuje samoistnie w ciągu 1-4 tygodni, choć u około połowy pacjentów objawy mogą utrzymywać się od 3 do 10 tygodni.109110 Powikłania są rzadkie, a rokowanie jest dobre, z pełnym powrotem do zdrowia bez specyficznego leczenia.111

Limfadenitis mezenterialny należy różnicować z innymi stanami powodującymi ból brzucha, szczególnie z zapaleniem wyrostka robaczkowego, które może wymagać pilnej interwencji chirurgicznej.112113 Dlatego ważna jest dokładna diagnostyka i monitorowanie, zwłaszcza w przypadkach o niejasnym obrazie klinicznym.

    Mesenteric adenitis (rare plural: adenitides), less commonly called mesenteric lymphadenitis (rare plural: lymphadenitides), is a self-limiting inflammatory process that affects the mesenteric lymph nodes in the right lower quadrant and is clinically often thought initially to be acute appendicitis, a common diagnostic mimic. […] Presentation is similar (or can be identical) to acute appendicitis, hence is a differential diagnosis for right iliac fossa pain. Mesenteric adenitis is often a diagnosis of exclusion after 'more serious’ etiologies have been ruled out. Definitive diagnosis at surgery is possible but is increasingly uncommon due to the ubiquity of modern imaging tools. […] In most cases, mesenteric adenitis is self-limiting and typically abates over the course of a few weeks.

The most common symptoms of mesenteric lymphadenitis may include: Abdominal pain, often centered on the lower, right side, but the pain can sometimes be more widespread; General abdominal tenderness; Fever; Diarrhea; Nausea and vomiting; General feeling of being unwell. […] In some cases, swollen lymph nodes are found on imaging tests for another problem. […] Mesenteric lymphadenitis usually goes away on its own and rarely causes complications. But if swollen lymph nodes are caused by a serious bacterial infection that is not treated, the bacteria could spread to the bloodstream, causing a potentially life-threatening infection (sepsis). In some cases, mesenteric adenitis can be mistaken for appendicitis or may signal a serious condition. If left untreated, appendicitis may lead to a ruptured appendix, which can be life threatening.

    Mesenteric lymphadenitis, which is also known as mesenteric adenitis, involves inflammation of the lymph nodes in the mesentery (part of the small intestine). Predominantly, it occurs in children, teens, and young adults and presents with abdominal pain and fever. It is a self-limiting condition that usually resolves on its own in 2 to 4 weeks with no complications. […] Mesenteric lymphadenitis is mainly seen in children, adolescents, and young adults. It can occur in both sexes although people assigned male at birth may be slightly more frequently affected than people assigned female at birth. The majority of the time, mesenteric lymphadenitis resolves on its own and is rarely associated with mortality or any complications.

    Widespread lower right quadrant abdominal pain is a common symptom of mesenteric lymphadenitis in most children. […] The risk factors for mesenteric lymphadenitis can be similar to the risk factors for bacterial or viral gastroenteritis, such as the consumption of contaminated food and water. […] Children with diagnosed IBD or lymphoma may also have a high risk of lymphadenitis. […] Complications of mesenteric lymphadenitis may include dehydration due to electrolyte and water loss from diarrhea and vomiting, peritonitis, sepsis, abscess, and arthralgia (joint pain). […] However, if your child has severe, sudden onset of abdominal pain, seek immediate medical care since this can even be the symptom of appendicitis. […] Blood tests could help confirm the presence and type of infection, and imaging tests such as abdominal ultrasound or a CT scan give a visualization of mesenteric lymph nodes.

    https://emedicine.medscape.com/article/181162-overview
    Mesenteric lymphadenitis refers to nonspecific self-limiting inflammation of the mesenteric lymph nodes and is considered present if a cluster of three or more lymph nodes, each measuring 5 mm or greater, is detected in the right lower quadrant mesentery. This process may be acute or chronic, depending on the causative agent, and it causes a clinical presentation that is often difficult to differentiate from acute appendicitis, particularly in children. […] Mesenteric lymphadenitis can occur in adults but is more common in children and adolescents younger than 15 years, and this condition during childhood or adolescence is linked to a significantly reduced risk of ulcerative colitis in adulthood. […] The prognosis is good. Typically, complete recovery can be expected without specific treatment. Death is rare.

    Mesenteric lymphadenitis is characterized by inflammation of the lymph nodes in the mesentery. This condition typically presents with symptoms such as abdominal pain, fever, and gastrointestinal problems. Mesenteric lymphadenitis is usually caused by bacterial or viral infections and is more common in children and young adults. […] In our study, 12 patients (20.7%) fulfilled SIRS criteria. The most frequently met SIRS criteria in these mesenteric lymphadenitis patients were fever (n=5), white cell count (n=14), heart rate (n=4) and respiratory rate (n=3). […] The rate of SIRS (+) was lower in patients diagnosed with mesenteric lymphadenitis. The group with SIRS (+) was more likely to accompany additional radiological comorbidity and hospitalization rates. […] Although mesenteric lymphadenitis and SIRS are primarily distinct conditions, their intersection in clinical scenarios underscores the importance of vigilant assessment and management to prevent potentially life-threatening complications.

    Mesenteric adenitis means swollen (inflamed) lymph glands in the tummy (abdomen), which causes tummy pain. It is sometimes called mesenteric lymphadenitis. […] Mesenteric adenitis is usually a mild condition which causes temporary pain in the tummy (abdominal pain), usually in children. […] The symptoms of mesenteric adenitis often start following a sore throat or flu-like symptoms. […] The main symptoms of mesenteric adenitis are: A sore throat or symptoms of a cold before the tummy pain started. Pain in the tummy. The pain is usually in the middle of your tummy (near your belly button). The pain may be in the lower right-hand side of the tummy (called the right iliac fossa). High temperature (fever) and feeling generally unwell. Feeling sick (nausea) and/or diarrhoea. […] The symptoms of mesenteric adenitis usually improve within a few days, and will almost always clear up completely within about two weeks. Rarely, if infection with a germ (bacterium) is the cause, the condition can become serious if left untreated.

    Available reports dealing with acute nonspecific mesenteric lymphadenitis do not address the total duration of symptoms. However, it is commonly assumed a time for recovery 4 weeks. […] A bimodal distribution in duration of symptoms was observed: symptoms persisted for 2 weeks in 22 patients and 3 to 10 weeks in 22. […] In patients affected with acute nonspecific mesenteric lymphadenitis, it is advantageous to think of the time span for recovery in terms of 4 weeks. […] Symptoms persist for 3 to 10 weeks in half of the patients. At presentation, clinical and laboratory characteristics are similar in children with symptoms persisting for 2 weeks or less and in those with symptoms persisting for 3-10 weeks.
