Autonomic disturbance which is one of the underlying factors that can lead to Ogilvie syndrome, is caused by stroke. Acute colonic pseudoobstruction (ACPO) in the setting of stroke is not often reported in medical literature. Various modalities of treatment strategies are recommended including conservative approaches, medical therapies, endoscopic and surgical procedures. We will discuss a patient suffering from a hemorrhagic stroke in the right basal ganglia that developed Acute Colonic Pseudo Obstruction and improved subsequently with conservative management.

CAT scan (Computerized Automated Tomography scan) was used as the imaging modality for preliminary diagnosis. The data was collected over a period of three years. Non-probability purposive sampling was used as the sampling technique. Patients of both sexes and all ages were included in the study.Results: Out of a total of 1938 patients, 1470 (75.9%) were males and 468 (24.1%) were females. Patients from 20 to 40 years’ age group (38.1%) represented the greatest number. Fall (52.6%) was found to be the most common external cause of Traumatic brain injury, followed by Road Traffic Accidents (34.1%). Most of the patients (42.4%) had a GCS score falling between 8 and 12. No lesion was found at t...
