Stercoral Perforation in the Setting of Chronic Antipsychotic Use: A Case Report.

Stercoral perforation is a rare form of colonic perforation with limited reports in the literature, accounting for less than 140 documented cases. This complication occurs due to increased intraluminal pressure created by fecal impaction, ultimately causing colonic ulceration and necrosis. It is most often seen in elderly or debilitated patients with chronic constipation.
