Introduction: Ogilvie's Syndrome (OS) is a rare but serious functional disorder characterized by dilatation of the colon, typically affecting the cecum and right colon, in the absence of any mechanical obstruction.

Case Presentation: We present an unusual case of Ogilvie's Syndrome in a 67-year-old female patient following elective dynamic hip screw surgery. She presented with gradual abdominal distention, as well as gas and stool retention.
