Abstract
Colonic pseudoobstruction is an enigmatic condition which can mimic mechanical obstruction clinically and lead to spontaneous cecal perforation. A patient who was treated for choriocarcinoma developed colonic pseudoobstruction and appropriate evaluation permitted nonsurgical management. The etiologies, diagnosis, and management of colonic pseudoobstruction are discussed.Entities:
