Colon cut-off sign

Radiologic sign

The colon cut-off sign is a radiographic finding seen on abdominal radiographs and computed tomography scans. It is characterized by a marked dilatation of the transverse colon, with an abrupt transition to collapsed distal colon, particularly the splenic flexure. This sign is indicative of underlying pathology, most commonly acute pancreatitis.
