    Abstract:
    Volvulus of transverse colon is a rare cause of large bowel obstruction. Diagnosis can be challenging and the effective management remains controversial. We report a case of volvulus of the transverse colon in a 76-year-old woman. The literature regarding diagnosis and treatment of such pathology was also reviewed.
