Antral infracolic volvulus of the stomach
Journal of the Canadian Association of Radiologists
|June 1, 1975
Abstract:
Two cases of antral infracolic volvulus of the stomach are presented. The etiology of gastric volvulus and the difference between the organo-axial and mesentero-axial volvulus are discussed. Further subdivision into partial or complete volvulus and the relationship between the transverse colon and the stomach during gastric volvulus is emphasized. Awareness and understanding of gastric volvulus may allow roentgen diagnosis.
