    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Surgical Gastroenterology
    • Abdominal Surgery

    Background:

    • Caecal volvulus is a rare but serious condition causing intestinal obstruction.
    • Prompt diagnosis and surgical intervention are crucial for patient outcomes.

    Observation:

    • A case of caecal volvulus is presented.
    • The surgical technique involved derotation and ileostomy-in-situ.

    Findings:

    • The described surgical method, derotation and ileostomy-in-situ, was successfully employed.
    • This procedure is highlighted as a commendable option for caecal volvulus.

    Implications:

    • The findings suggest that derotation and ileostomy-in-situ is a viable and effective treatment for caecal volvulus.
  • This surgical option should be considered in cases where intestinal viability is maintained.
