ABSTRACT
Although ischemic colitis is often considered to be a condition occurred in elderly patients or in patients with vascular diseases, it also can occur in younger healthy persons. Some drugs, such as oral contraceptives, may play an important role in the development of ischemic colitis in young women. However, constipation also can play an important role in this condition. We recently experienced a case of reversible ischemic colitis of a young woman, who had been suffered from obstructive type of chronic constipation, after taking a laxative and enema. We report this case with literature review. Proper managements and educations in patients with chronic constipation should be emphasized.
