Ileus may occur after abdominal or pelvic surgery. Certain drugs or diseases, such as Parkinson’s, also may cause this condition.

Symptoms

Ileus is treated by passing a tube from the nose to the stomach or small intestine to suck out air and relieve abdominal swelling while waiting for bowel function to return.
