ABSTRACT

The incidence reported of the cecal volvulus described in the literature is low due to the fact that it is not typical, first for its anatomical location and in second for its physiopathology. In general, for the lack of retroperitoneal fixation of the right colon that predisposes to the axial rotation of the ileocolic union and it can present as a picture of acute intestinal obstruction that can or not compromise the mesenteric traffic, with principal predominance in the fourth decade of the life in the feminine genre. The treatment in general changes from the hemicolectomy, cecostomy, endoscopic decompression or the cecopexy having each of them its precise indication.
