Perforation of the colon or other part of the gastrointestinal tract is a medical emergency that often requires surgical repair. A patient with a perforated colon can present with symptoms such as bowel obstruction, pain with fever or chills, increased white blood cell count, nausea, diarrhea or constipation. Other symptoms include bloody stool, fatigue and jaundice.
The perforated bowel allows food or stool to leak into the abdomen. The food or stool causes severe inflammation of the inside of the abdomen, called peritonitis. Causes of perforated bowel include abdominal injury, inflammatory bowel disease, peptic ulcer disease, colorectal cancer, and diverticulitis.
