Abstract
Chronic intake of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has been reported to cause side-effects distal to the duodenum. These include strictures, diaphragm-like lesions and perforations of the small and large intestines. This is the first case report on colon perforation occurring in an adolescent (16-year-old girl) after short-term diclofenac intake.Entities:
