Chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction

Best Practice & Research Clinical Gastroenterology, 2007
Chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (CIPO) is a severe functional digestive syndrome characterised by a derangement of gut propulsive motility which resembles mechanical obstruction. It may be associated with disabling and potentially life-threatening complications. CIPO can be secondary to a variety of diseases, but it is more frequently idiopathic.

Digestive Diseases, 1995
Chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction denotes the clinical picture that results due to the failure of intestinal peristalsis to overcome the normal resistance to flow and is characterized by recurrent episodes of signs and symptoms of intestinal obstruction in the absence of any mechanical compromise of the intestinal lumen.

Chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction

Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 2005
Chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (CIP) is a gastrointestinal motility disorder characterized by chronic symptoms and signs of bowel obstruction in the absence of a fixed, lumen-occluding lesion. Radiographic findings consist of dilated bowel with air-fluid levels. Pseudo-obstruction is an uncommon condition and can result from primary or secondary

Chronic Intestinal Pseudo-Obstruction

Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 1981
Intestinal pseudo-obstruction (IP) is an uncommon disorder of gut motility which must be differentiated from mechanical intestinal obstruction. We have seen 11 such patients over the last 5 years. Characteristic symptoms, shared by mechanical obstruction, include abdominal distention and pain, nausea, and vomiting.

Chronic Intestinal Pseudo-Obstruction

Digestive Diseases, 2000
Chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (CIPO) is a syndrome defined by the presence of chronic intestinal dilation and dysmotility in the absence of mechanical obstruction or gross inflammatory disease. Specific diseases may affect any level of the brain-gut axis.

Chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction

Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 1999
For many patients, nutritional support and relief of symptoms remain the primary management goal of pseudo-obstruction. Specific pharmacological agents for this disorder are, in general, lacking. Given that the efficacy of many of the individual available agents is far from excellent, several centers have turned to combination therapy.

Recurrent or Chronic Intestinal Pseudo-obstruction

Clinics in Gastroenterology, 1981
Recurrent or chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction is not a rare problem. More cases will be recognized and diagnosed when clinicians are more aware of this problem. Medical treatment is unsatisfactory in most cases unless the patients have such treatable associated systemic diseases as myxoedema, hypoparathyroidism or phaeochromocytoma.
