Abstract
Acute pseudo-obstruction of the large bowel, Ogilvie's syndrome, can occur in the postpartum period following caesarean section which can result in caecal dilatation and may progress to perforation. This is quiet rare following normal vaginal delivery. Only two previous reports have been found in the English literature. We report a case of Ogilvie's syndrome with caecal perforation following normal vaginal delivery.
