Gastric volvulus as a complication of liver transplant

Arie Franco et al. Pediatr Radiol. 2005 Mar.

Abstract

We report a patient who developed mesenteroaxial gastric volvulus after a liver transplantation. We hypothesize that this complication may have been related to the ligation of the hepatogastric ligament done to mobilize the liver during hepatectomy.
