CHAPTER 10 GI symptoms
246

descending
colon
Suggested by: alternate diarrhea and constipation
Confirmed by: colonoscopy with biopsy, barium enema

inflammatory
disease
Suggested by: lower abdominal pain, fever, vaginal
discharge, dysuria, elevated ESR and CRP, leukocytosis
Confirmed by: high vaginal swab, pelvic ultrasound, ±
laparoscopy

CHAPTER 11 GI signs
250
General examination checklist
Preliminary findings should have been discovered during the general
examination. These include jaundice, anemia, clubbing, xanthelasma, or
gynecomastia; abnormalities of the lips, buccal mucosa, throat, and tongue;
the presence of supraclavicular lump(s).

DISTENDED ABDOMEN1
251
Distended abdomen
Inspect the abdomen from a sitting position next to the bed or couch.
Consider the general shape, then look at the skin. Next, consider move-
ment of the abdomen. The causes are the traditional 6 F’s: Fat, Fluid,
Flatus, Feces, Fibroids, and Fetus.
Some differential diagnoses and typical outline evidence
Fat (obese) Suggested by: usually sunken umbilicus, dullness to
percussion throughout
Confirmed by: CT abdomen
Fluid (ascites) Suggested by: bilateral bulging flanks, shifting dullness,
fluid thrill
Confirmed by: ultrasound liver and abdomen
Flatus (gas)
due to normal
dietary variation
Suggested by: tympanic sound throughout. Often
associated with constipation
Confirmed by: AXR
shows normal gas shadow
Small bowel
obstruction
(“flatus” again)
Suggested by: mild distension, early vomiting, central
and high abdominal pain, resonant percussion, and
increased bowel sounds. Supine AXR showing central
gas but no peripheral abdominal large-bowel shadow
(i.e., without haustra partly crossing) but valvulae
conniventes of small intestine entirely crossing the
lumen. Fluid levels on erect film
Confirmed by: abdominal ultrasound and laparotomy
findings
Large bowel
obstruction
Suggested by: severe distension, late vomiting, visible
peristalsis, resonant percussion, and increased bowel
sounds. Supine AXR showing peripheral abdominal
large-bowel shadow (with haustra partly crossing the
lumen). Fluid levels on erect film
Confirmed by: abdominal ultrasound and laparotomy
findings
Fecal
i
ii
impaction
Suggested by: paucity of bowel movement and
constipation. AXR shows stippled pattern of fecal
loading
Confirmed by: digital exam, resolution of distension
with evacuation
Fibroids, large
ovarian cyst
Suggested by: mass in pelvis in middle-aged female
Confirmed by: abdominal ultrasound
Fetus Suggested by: amenorrhea and mass in pelvis (cannot
get below it)
Confirmed by: positive urine pregnancy test or iplasma
β
-hCG. Also abdominal ultrasound
