Small bowel obstruction can be treated with intervention. Not all types of small bowel obstruction are suitable for intervention. Interventional therapy can be used for adhesive bowel obstruction, simple bowel obstruction, paralytic bowel obstruction, and early postoperative inflammatory bowel obstruction. Interventional therapy involves implanting a stent into the narrowed area of the intestinal lumen under gastroscopic guidance. For simple small bowel obstruction, the narrowed intestinal lumen can be reopened and the intestinal contents can pass smoothly. For adhesive small bowel obstruction, the stent can also support the entire bowel, so that the adhesive small bowel can be rearranged, and each folded area of the bowel collaterals can form an obtuse angle, thus creating a smooth environment. In contrast, strangulated small bowel obstruction, necrotizing small bowel obstruction is not suitable for interventional therapy and should be treated immediately with surgery such as bowel resection and intestinal anastomosis. If the diagnosis of small bowel obstruction is confirmed, whether to use interventional therapy or not should be decided by the doctor according to the characteristics of the patient’s condition, and follow the doctor’s instructions.
