ABSTRACT

Pneumatosis Intestinalis (PI) is an exceptional disorder caused by an accumulation of gas within the small or large intestine's mucosa. The individuals who persist a risk marker for Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or Bronchial Asthma more likely to experience Pneumatosis Intestinalis. To provide effective management and medical treatment, it's important to understand each individual's unique circumstances and use expert medical approaches. Here we present a rare instance of PI in a 78-year-old woman with a 20-year track record of bronchial asthma.
