An unusual cause of obstructed defecation.

Abstract:

:Obstructed defecation is one subtype of constipation, and may be due to functional or mechanical causes. Here, we report an unusual cause, never described before, of obstructed defecation due to a large uterine myoma that reverted to normal bowel habits after surgery. The importance of an accurate evaluation of the causes of constipation is highlighted, to recognize potential curable factors.
