Abstrakt: | Constipation is a very common pattern in childhood. There are multiple reasons for constipation including one very rare : chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction syndrome. We report the case of a young patient monitored for multiple incidents of intestinal pseudo- obstruction with intractable constipation. The patient underwent several surgical interventions to relieve his symptoms because the non operative treatments, based on liquid diet and laxatives, didn't show great effectiveness. We will review the differential diagnosis of chronic constipation and we will discuss the particular diagnostic entity of this patient. We will also discuss the different treatments that allowed to provide tolerance to oral feeding. |
