Update Fall 2012: I quit after two years as a business analyst. I work at a tech company now and am much happier, but realize that I would not be where I am without my experience at Deloitte. Most of my team in my current company came from consulting (Bain, Deloitte, etc.) as well. ________________. I work there now, I've been here for more than one but less than three years. It is my first job out of college.
Causes of a Blocked Bowel. Most cases of small bowel obstruction are due to mechanical causes. A small portion of cases are due to impaired intestinal motility, thereby preventing the flow of chyme further down the gastrointestinal tract. This causes intestinal contents to become âbacked upâ.
An obstruction of the first segment of the small intestine (duodenum) may be caused by cancer of the pancreas, scarring from an ulcer, or Crohn disease. Rarely, a gallstone, a mass of undigested food, or a collection of parasitic worms may block other parts of the small intestine.he cause of the obstruction and the appearance of the intestine determine whether the surgeon can relieve the blockage without removing a segment of the intestine. Sometimes adhesions can be cut to release the trapped segment of intestine, although they tend to recur.
