摘要
作者描述了1例16岁男孩在7个星期内发作3次乙状结肠肠扭转(SV),每次都是经过内窥镜使扭转的乙状结肠复位。
The authors describe a 16-year-old boy in whom 3 episodes of sigmoid volvulus (SV) occurred over a period of 7 weeks, each time reduced by endoscopy. The child subsequently underwent a successful sigmoid resection with primary anastamosis. Several months after surgery, he remains free of symptoms and is doing well. A review of the literature illustrates the approach to this problem from ancient times until now.
