Abstract:
The case of an 11-year-old girl with a history of chondrodysplasia punctata is reported. She presented with a clinical picture of abdominal pain and vomiting. At surgical intervention an organo-axial gastric volvulus was found and a single derotation was performed. Three weeks after discharge the patient presented abdominal distension and vomiting. In a plain abdominal X-ray film a gastric dilation was appreciated and a new volvulus was detected by means of a contrast radiogram. The diagnosis was confirmed at surgery and a gastropexy was performed without volvulus relapse.
