Laparoscopic management of rare case of mesentricoaxial gastric volvulus

Sumita A Jain

Sawai Man Singh Medical College and Hospital, India

G

astric volvulus is an uncommon condition. It occurs mainly as a result of congenital laxity of the stomach's attachments

and might be accompanied by a diaphragmatic hernia. This sometimes causes the stomach to herniate into the thorax. It

can be mesentricoaxial or organoaxial, former being rarer. We present our 2 patients who were managed with minimal invasive

surgery. We managed two patients with gastric volvulus, both had mesentricoaxial gastric volvulus. One of the patient also had

diaphragmatic hernia in which repair was done with mesh hernioplasty. Both patients recovered well from surgery. The average

hospital stay was 3 days. Mesentricoaxial gastric volvulus is a rare disease and very few cases have been reported in the literature

and there are combined endoscopic and laparoscopic approaches for treatment. In secondary volvulus, the diaphragmatic

defect has to be repaired, preferably with mesh. Gastropexy is performed in all cases. Even though worldwide experience

in laparoscopic surgery for gastric volvulus is limited, the results are encouraging. Based on our experience, laparoscopic

management seems to be safe and feasible in the rare case of mesentricoaxial gastric volvulus.
