 ==Treatment==
 The distension can be relieved by trocharisation of the caecal head at the right sub-lumbar fossa, performed under ultrasound guidance. Starvation and intravenous fluid therapy are also beneficial.
-If the use of a trochar does not relive the distension then the colic should be considered surgical as this condition cannot be distinguished from distension due to surgical displacements of the large colon.
