ABSTRACT
Background: Colonic vascular lesion secondary to verapamil overdose is mediated by free radicals, forming vascular microtrombos
and endotoxin generation, being a difficult diagnosis.
Clinical Case: A 27-year-old female is admitted with an acute
abdomen of 4 days after an event referred for a suicidal attempt due to an overdose of verapamil, operating surgically where
there is a right transmural colon necrosis, performing a right hemicolectomy with terminal ileostomy.
Conclusions: Recognize
and properly treat an acute abdomen, not always reach an adequate diagnosis, so a thorough history could conclude.
