SHANGHAI—Doctors were forced to remove 13kg of feces stored in the colon of a man who was suffering from a rare bowel condition last Thursday, the Straits Times, quoting local media, reported.

Zhou Hai, 22, had arrived at the Shanghai Tenth People’s Hospital with his belly so bloated that witnesses said he looked like he was heavily pregnant.

According to local media reports, Zhou was struggling to breathe and could only moan in pain.

A CT scan revealed that there ware feces stored in his colon.

In a three-hour operation, surgeons removed a section of Zhou’s colon that measured 76cm long and weighed 13kg.

Zhou told doctors that he had suffered from constipation since he was born and took laxatives on a regular basis.

But his condition worsened in the three days before his operation, and Zhou was forced to seek treatment due to the severe abdominal pain.

Tests conducted indicated that the man had months – even years – worth of feces stored in a portion of his colon, which caused his abdomen to swell.

It was later discovered that he suffers from Hirschsprung’s disease, a birth defect that results in missing nerve cells in the muscles of a baby’s colon.

This causes blockages in the large intestine and requires surgery to remove the diseased part of the colon.

The disease is usually detected in infants within 48 hours of birth, but Zhou’s case is one of the few rare instances where it was discovered only in adulthood.

Those with the disease are prone to an intestinal infection called enterocolitis, which can be life-threatening.

I don't know why, but the instant I opened this topic, that tiny typo jumped out at me. Like I didn't even start to read the article; that one little word seemed to magically draw my eye to it so I read that part first.

The useless section of colon eventually overflows from the backpressure, I guess.

why would someone want to hold a colon filled with 13kg of poo

He doesn't. He has a very rare condition where his brain is not telling his colon it is time to let the poop go.

Similar urinary and rectal problems can occur in many others with neurological conditions of all kinds. As one of these people, I feel for this guy, and hope he makes it out okay.

Probably like death times infinity.

I certainly hope those doctors wore like 20 face masks for that operation.

I hoped they spent the next 24 hours doing nothing but washing and sterilizing their hands.
