Abstract:
A case of chronic gastric organoaxial volvulus, gastroesophageal reflux, esophagitis, and chronic anemia is presented. Reflux esophagitis and chronic anemia have not been reported previously as clinical signs associated with gastric volvulus in a child. A Meckel's scan is used to diagnose the displaced stomach.
