In gastro psychology and medicine, the term functional colonic disease (or functional bowel disorder) refers to a group of bowel disorders which are characterised by chronic abdominal complaints without a structural or biochemical cause that could explain symptoms. This is a subset of functional gastrointestinal disorders

ExamplesEdit

Functional bowel disorders include, among others:

• Functional dyspepsia
• Non-cardiac chest pain (NCCP)
• Chronic abdominal pain
• Functional constipation
• Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)

CriteriaEdit

The Rome process has helped to define the functional gastrointestinal disorders.^[1] Successively, the Rome I, Rome II and the Rome III meetings have proposed a consensual classification system and terminology, as recommended by the Rome Coordinating Committee.
