Seven cases of Ogilvie's syndrome are described. In six of ther good recovery was related to repeated endoscopic colonic decompressions. This is the safest and most precise procedure in the diagnosis and treatment of the disease. We emphasize the usefulness of repeated decompressions in the outcome of Ogilvie's syndrome. One of patients in which decompression was not attempted died of a colonic rupture.
