Abstract One hundred cases of chagasic megacolon operated upon in Bahia, Brazil, have been analysed. The principal theories of the pathological physiology of the disease are discussed. The pre- and postoperative radio-graphic features of the colon are presented, and the surgical treatment as well as the incidence of complications and late results are reported.
