Journal Title: Journal of Evolution of Medical and Dental Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 47
Abstract
A 55-year-old male was admitted in the surgical emergency department with a 2-day history of central abdominal pain, abdominal distension and non-passage of flatus and stool with single episode of vomiting. Patient had no previous surgical history. Patient had stable vitals and general condition. Abdominal examination revealed mildly distended abdomen mainly around umbilicus, but otherwise soft with slight tenderness. Bowel sounds were sluggish. No inguinal hernias were present. Erect abdominal x-ray revealed 4 - 5 air-fluid levels without much bowel dilatation (Fig. 1).
