Synchronous cecal and sigmoid volvulus. Report of a case
Dis Colon Rectum.
1992 Aug.
Abstract
Volvulus is a rare cause of intestinal obstruction in the U.S. Sigmoid colon volvulus is the most frequent, followed by cecal volvulus. The simultaneous occurrence of cecal and sigmoid colon volvulus is extremely unusual. We are reporting what to our knowledge is the third case.
