RADIOLOGY: ABDOMEN: Case# 32775: ISCHEMIC & PERFORATED BOWEL. Patient is a 40 year old white male with multiple medical problems. 1. Bibasilar air space consolidation which probably represents pneumonia. 2. Large amount of ascites. 3. Several ill defined low attenuation areas in the spleen and left kidney which may represent infarction or loci of infection. 4. Dilated large and small bowel down to the level of the proximal sigmoid. If clinically indicated a barium enema might be helpful to exclude obstruction. 5. Peritoneal enhancement consistent with peritonitis.
