[An unusual cause of mechanical ileus]. 1987

E S Strobel, and A H Beck
Abteilung für Innere Medizin I, Medizinische Universitätsklinik Freiburg.

A patient with the signs of mechanical ileus is reported. Past history of dilated cardiomyopathy with atrial fibrillation and the recent occlusion of the left renal artery suggested arterial mesenteric embolism. Celiacography ruled out mesenteric thromboembolism and vigorous enemas resulted in the delivery of the foreign bodies causing the mechanical ileus: 2 "10-Pfennig" coins.
