Complete – evident by lack of flatus, stool, or radiographic evidence beyond the point of obstruction. Large air-filled bowel loops will be seen on radiographs. Incomplete – marked by continuous passage of flatus, stool, or radiographic evidence beyond the point of obstruction. Classification Location – small bowel or colon. Etiology

Adequate roughage is needed to stimulate muscle activity in the bowel to push the stool along. Lack of adequate exercise. due to physical restrictions: An air-fluid lock can collect in the bowel loops and the smooth muscle of the bowel may be too weak to push the fluid along.

In Crohns disease, the terminal ileum is usually involved. There is a loop of bowel, which is narrowed and shows a “spiky” appearance to the wall with projections of barium (white arrow).
