[A woman with abdominal pain and absence of defaecation].
A 62-years-old female presented to the Emergency Department with abdominal pain and absence of defaecation for two days. CT revealed an ileus with a change in the diameter of the small intestine and a segment without contrast in the intestinal wall. Laparotomy confirmed that a segment of the ileum was ischaemic.
