چکیده
|
Volvulus is a rare cause of intestinal obstruction and occurs mostly in sigmoid colon and cecum. it is more common in patients with down syndrome. in this condition, it is even more challenging to diagnose the cause of intestinal obstruction through history and physical examination alone. early diagnosis and intervention are critical in this condition to prevent serious side effects. simultaneous volvulus is a sporadic case in the surgical entity. we report a very rare case of simultaneous volvulus of cecum and transverse colon, its management, and outcomes in a 20-year-old known case of down syndrome.
