There is no inflammation, no sclerosis, and no edema of the rectal walls, if they have not been neglected nor tampered with. The hand may pass freely along the rectum until it comes suddenly upon the constricted portion, when further progress is more or less completely barred. In the incarcera- tion colic caused by the parovarian cyst illustrated in Figs. 72, 73 and 74, the clinical features were identical with those due to ovarian incarceration of the intestine.
