    AbstractBased on literature and own original clinical data authors conclude that Ogilvie's syndrome is the form of dynamic obstruction of colon due to lesion of retroperitoneal neural nodes, heart failure and intoxication. Ogilvie's syndrome complicates therapeutic and surgical diseases. This syndrome can be manifested with acute abdomen symptoms and at 22% cases may be the cause of surgical treatment. Ogilvie's syndrome is successfully treated with evacuation of intestinal contents, but the risk of recurrence after this treatment is high. Ethiotropic therapy, correction of water-electrolytic balance and tissues oxygenation, administration of acetylcholinesterase inhibitors are the more effective treatment of this syndrome.
