Sigmoid volvulus and uterine torsion are both rare and challenging conditions in pregnancy, and the coexistence of these conditions is particularly difficult to diagnose. Herein, we report a case of a 38-year-old pregnant woman at 30 weeks of gestation, with a history of two prior cesarean sections, who presented with severe abdominal pain, vomiting, and constipation, and was eventually diagnosed with both sigmoid volvulus and uterine torsion during surgery. Clinicians should consider the possibility of bowel obstruction when a pregnant woman presents with severe abdominal pain, vomiting, and constipation, as early diagnosis is crucial. Early imaging, prompt intervention, and a multidisciplinary approach are essential for preventing severe maternal and fetal complications.
乙状结肠扭转和子宫扭转在妊娠中均为罕见且具有挑战性的情况,而这两种情况并存时尤其难以诊断。在此,我们报告一例38岁、孕30周的孕妇病例,该孕妇有两次剖宫产史,出现严重腹痛、呕吐和便秘症状,最终在手术中被诊断为乙状结肠扭转和子宫扭转。当孕妇出现严重腹痛、呕吐和便秘时,临床医生应考虑肠梗阻的可能性,因为早期诊断至关重要。早期影像学检查、及时干预以及多学科方法对于预防严重的母婴并发症至关重要。
