Diaphragmatic Flexure Impaction

More severe than the pelvic flexure impaction, a large colon impaction usually consists of a large amount of dry, doughy ingesta throughout the large colon, especially in the dorsal colon. The initial blockage can occur at the transverse or right dorsal colon. If resolution is not accomplished, rupture may occur.
