Abstract :

Bowel perforation has been described following caesarean section. Ogilvie��?s syndrome and paralytic ileus are the two most common causes of functional bowel obstruction. We report here a case of ogilivie��?s syndrome. Unfortunately, surgical intervention was late and patient died. Cecal perforation is a rare postoperative complication after a Caesarean section. Early identification is critical for successful treatment of these patients. If a postoperative patient presents with features consistent with a bowel obstruction, prompt imaging should be performed in order to aid early diagnosis and intervention. Abdominal ultrasonography is of limited value in detecting intraluminal colonic neoplasms. Large bowel obstruction should be treated with urgency to avoid cecal perforation. Presenter
