Kolik impaksi
Also known as: Usus tersumbat
Kolik impaksi terjadi ketika isi usus yang keras dan kering tersangkut di usus besar, paling sering di fleksura pelvis, menyebabkan sumbatan sebagian atau total. Kondisi ini biasanya berkembang secara bertahap akibat dehidrasi, gigi yang buruk, atau pakan kasar. Sebagian besar kasus sembuh dengan penanganan medis, meskipun impaksi berat dapat memerlukan operasi.
