Gastric volvulus can either present as an acute or chronic symptoms according to the degree of gastric rotation and subsequent obstruction. The diagnosis of gastric volvulus is often difficult and is mainly based on imaging studies. We describe a case of mesenteroaxial gastric volvulus associated with paraesophageal hernia, well demonstrated on upper gastrointestinal (UGI) series and coronal reconstructed CT image.

Gastric volvulus is a rare surgical disorder in the pediatric population. We experienced a case of gastric volvulus. A 2-year-old boy was admitted to hospital with abdominal distension. An upper gastrointestinal series showed reversal of the greater and lesser curvatures. Surgical exploration revealed an organoaxial volvulus of the stomach, and anterior gastropexy was performed.

Gastric volvulus is a rare condition, and it is classified as the organoaxial or mesentericaxial type according to the axis of rotation. We experienced 1 case of pediatric recurrent mesenteroaxial gastric volvulus and we report here the ultrasonographic and CT findings.

Acute gastric volvulus requires emergency surgery, and a laparoscopic approach for both acute and chronic gastric volvulus was reported recently to give good results. The case of a 50-year-old patient with acute primary gastric volvulus who was treated by laparoscopic reduction and percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy is described here. This approach seems to be feasible and safe for not only chronic gastric volvulus, but also acute gastric volvulus.

Spontaneous gastric perforation in a healthy child is extremely rare; however, its outcome can be life-threatening. Gastric perforation may be caused by inflammation, mechanical injury, ingestion, and vascular compromise. We report a rare case of gastric perforation with unfavorable results in a 13-year-old, previously healthy, boy. We conclude that acute gastric volvulus is a possible cause of gastric perforation in this case.
