Multiple intra-mural air bubbles are seen in the wall of the splenic flexure of the colon without apparent intraperitoneal air.
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.
