eMedicine - Ogilvie Syndrome : Article by Prospere Remy, MD (2670 words)
Background: Ogilvie syndrome, or acute colonic pseudo-obstruction (ACPO), is a clinical disorder with the signs, symptoms, and radiographic appearance of an acute large bowel obstruction with no evidence of distal colonic obstruction.
Ogilvie hypothesized that the etiology of their conditions was an imbalance in the autonomic nervous system with sympathetic deprivation to the colon leading to unopposed parasympathetic tone, regional contraction, and, thus, a functional obstruction.
Unlike Ogilvie's hypothesis, some current evidence suggests that an interruption of the sacral parasympathetic nerves occurs, leading to an adynamic distal colon that is similar to Hirschsprung disease, except with normal ganglion cells observable on autopsy.
