A case of pneumatosis coli of the caecum and ascending colon with a closed loop obstruction secondary to carcinoma of the descending colon is presented. The caecum was grossly distended and impending rupture was diagnosed. It is postulated that complete transmural rupture of the caecum was prevented by partial decompression of caecal air into the bowel wall.
本文报告一例盲肠和升结肠发生结肠积气，并继发于降结肠癌的闭袢性肠梗阻。盲肠明显扩张，诊断为即将破裂。据推测，盲肠内气体部分减压进入肠壁，从而防止了盲肠的全层破裂。
