Abstract :
Sigmoid volvulus is one of the most common
causes of bowel obstruction in developing countries..
Sigmoid volvulus make up more than half of all colon
obstructions, and a multi-dimensional etiology has been
considered, especially in foods that include a high-fiber
diet and pre-existing idle sigmoid intestine. It is assumed
that these high-fiber nutrients reduce intestinal transit
time, leading to unnecessary sigmoid intestinal
discomfort. Although disease and mortality statistics
play an important role in determining the safety of
surgical procedures, information about long-term
clinical outcomes greatly influences the widespread
acceptance of surgical techniques. The ideal treatment
for large bowel obstruction due to sigmoid volvulus not
only leads to fewer deaths and patients in the short term,
but should also have a lower recurrence rate in the long
term. Surgical treatment of volvulus has become the
mainstay of volvulus treatment with three surgical
techniques: (1) detoursian and mesenteric fold, (2) bowel
examination with anastomosis, and (3) Hartman's
procedure for the treatment of volvulus.The purpose of
this study was to examine and manage the clinical
outcomes of patients.
