Numerous intra-mural gas bubbles are seen in the wall of the transverse and splenic flexure colon. No intraperitoneal gas is noted.
An 8 mm cyst is noted at segment II of the liver.
Case Discussion
This case demonstrates intramural gas bubbles limited to the colonic wall, which is compatible with pneumatosis cystoides coli, a rare, idiopathic, and usually benign condition.
