Toxic mega colon!! Megacolon is an abnormal dilation of the colon (also called the large intestine). The dilation is often accompanied by a paralysis of the peristaltic movements of the bowel, which caused the bowel to enlarge slowly to fit the content which is not existing the bowel! It could be congenital or due to medication! @medicalcortex #medstudent #nurse #doctor #surgery #medicine #medical #surgeon #aneurysm #neurology #emergencyroom #emergency #medicalstudent #medic #blood #vascular #pediatrics #baby #autopsy #pathology #premed #usmle
