Treatment of recurrent colonic pseudo-obstruction by endoscopic placement of a fenestrated overtube. Report of a case.
Diseases of the Colon and Rectum 1987 August
The case of a 73-year-old man who developed acute colonic pseudo-obstruction (Ogilvie's syndrome) following chemotherapy for lymphoma is reported. Cecal dilatation resolved after a single colonoscopic decompression. Following his next course of chemotherapy, colonic dilatation again developed. The recurrence was treated successfully by introducing a fenestrated colonoscopic overtube transanally for continuous decompression. The literature concerning acute, colonic pseudo-obstruction is reviewed. The colonoscopic overtube is a convenient and effective treatment for recurrent colonic distention.
