  • Title: Colonic volvulus--an old problem with a new twist.
    Author: Lehane CW, Gold DM.
    Journal: Colorectal Dis; 2009 Oct; 11(8):882-3. PubMed ID: 19175641.
    Abstract:
    We present a case report involving an unusual type of volvulus. A 51-year-old man presented with an acute abdomen. He underwent emergency laparotomy at which we identified a volvulus involving his caecum to descending colon in continuity. We believe this to be first reported case of total colonic volvulus.
