A patient is described who developed caecal volvulus several years after sigmoid colectomy for recurrent sigmoid volvulus. The pathophysiology of colonic volvulus is briefly reviewed, and it is suggested that an innate tendency to poor muscular tone in the colon may predispose to volvulus, while conversely excessive tone may lead to diverticular disease.
本文描述了一名患者,该患者在因复发性乙状结肠扭转接受乙状结肠切除术后数年发生了盲肠扭转。本文简要回顾了结肠扭转的病理生理学,并指出结肠肌张力差的先天倾向可能易导致扭转,而相反,肌张力过高可能导致憩室病。
