This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Toxic megacolon (megacolon toxicum) is a life-threatening complication of other intestinal conditions. It is characterized by a very dilated colon (megacolon), accompanied by abdominal distension (bloating), and sometimes fever, abdominal pain, or shock.

Toxic megacolon is usually a complication of inflammatory bowel disease, such as ulcerative colitis and, more rarely, Crohn’s disease, and some infections of the colon. Other forms of megacolon exist and can be congenital (present since birth, such as Hirschsprung's disease).

Signs and Symptoms
Abdominal pain
Abdominal bloating
Abdominal tenderness
Fever
Tachycardia (rapid heart rate)
Dehydration
There may be signs of septic shock. A physical examination reveals abdominal tenderness and possible loss of bowel sounds. An abdominal radiography shows colonic dilation. There is usually an elevated white blood cell count. Severe sepsis may present with hypothermia or leukopenia.

Prognosis
If the condition does not improve, there is a significant risk of death. In case of poor response to conservative therapy a colectomy is usually required. This may involve all or part of the colon being removed, with the resulting option of anastomosis or colostomy. Colostomy carries far less risk of infection and post-operative complications because the risk of deterioration of sutures within the intestinal tract (as a result of anastomosis) is not present. The risk of death and shock has been reported to be lower in children, however most children required colectomy in one case-control study.

Interesting that nobody has commented yet.
But it is equally interesting and encouraging to know that science of homeopathy works as expected.
It was nice to present this example Dr. Sabadra.
