    Author: Ofiaeli RO.
    Journal: Cent Afr J Med; 1992 Apr; 38(4):169-71. PubMed ID: 1394399.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of volvulus of the sigmoid colon in paediatric patients are presented. The condition is rare in childhood. The diagnosis was established at laparotomy in the first case while the second case was diagnosed because of heightened awareness. The clinical features of the disease are essentially as in adults.
