Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology Researcher Describes New Findings in Ogilvie's Syndrome (Ogilvie Syndrome with Cecal Perforation Following Cesarean Section: A Rare Case Report from Jordan).

A recent report from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology discusses Ogilvie's syndrome, a rare condition characterized by acute colonic dilation. The report describes a case of a 32-year-old pregnant woman who experienced abdominal pain and was diagnosed with cecal perforation following a cesarean section. The condition is more common in males but can occur in females due to various factors, including pregnancy and pelvic surgeries. Treatment options include conservative measures, medication, and colonoscopic decompression. Further research is needed to understand the cause of this syndrome. [Extracted from the article]
