Core Tip	We present a case of abdominal compartment syndrome, a condition characterized by increased intra-abdominal pressure causing severe physiological disturbance and multiorgan failure. This situation can occur with a rare gastrointestinal acquired motility disorder called hypoganglionosis. We learned that such condition could present in adult life, developing massive colonic distension, fecal impaction and overwhelming abdominal distension causing abdominal compartment syndrome. It should be recognized that emergency life-saving resection may become necessary in such cases.
