In this prospective study, 100 cases were surgically treated for intestinal obstruction were evaluated. The aim is to find out the possible common conditions resulting in causing this common surgical emergency. Also to compare the provisional clinical diagnosis about ischemic obstruction and the definitive post operative diagnosis. All patients with complete intestinal obstruction who were particularly thought to be suffering from strangulated obstruction were subjected to early surgical exploration following rapid resuscitation.
