Recurrent Ogilvie Syndrome as a Possible Manifestation of Alpha-Gal Syndrome (AGS) Requiring Surgical Management: A Case Report.

We present a case of a male in his 60s with a history of alpha-gal syndrome (AGS) who presented with recurrent acute colonic pseudo-obstruction, also known as Ogilvie syndrome, and underwent surgical treatment for life-limiting symptoms of colonic distention, constipation, and abdominal pain. Prior to surgery, he was hospitalized multiple times after beef consumption and was diagnosed with Ogilvie syndrome, requiring a colonoscopy with rectal tube placement for symptom resolution. He later underwent a robotic subtotal colectomy with ileocolic anastomosis.
