Somehow this presentation gives me the closure I needed in understanding what took my Dad away from me. I now understand and know what he was facing. 😢
thanks doc for the well articulated tutorial. with mortality rates as high as 35% and a high association with comorbidities, I'd be hesitant to resect. What intralumenal technologies exist if any for shortening an elongated section of bowel? Seems like non surgical management followed by strict dietary management is the most prudent medical management for a patient with severe comorbidities.
Resection patient here. Resection is needed for two major reasons; 1) it is dangerous to keep the volvulus tissues as they might have no blood circulation for long time 2) the situation can easily reoccurre.
If I have an elongated colon with severe constipation, does this mean I will automatically have emergency issues? My constipation has been life long! I take as much laxative type medications I can and eat green leafy vegetables and fruits and drink lots of water! I even have to take gas x all the time and my stomach bloats a lot! I also get acid reflux a lot at night! I am in a lot of pain which at times affects my breathing at night! Should I get surgery so I don't get this?
i got checked for a kidney stone and they said i had "Whirling appearance of the vasculature in the mesentery may represent bowel malrotation." they told me go to the er, the doctor said i dont have volvulus. i prob have pain from uti, which urine came back bacteria my question is ok i dont have volvulus now, but my ct scan said whirling. any research ive done suggested whirling leads to volvulus. so am i on a deathclock? or was the ct scan just wrong about whirling. or can i have whirling and nothing comes of it ever? sure im fine today but what about next week?

I think there is some role of digital rectal examination which may direct towards the cause of acute intestinal obstruction.
How ?
I have suffered from this sigmoid volvulus and I got laparotomy surgery
Does gas escape constantly?
Thanks Dr!!! I think am ready to make a class presentation tomorrow.
