Concurrent SV and ovarian cyst torsion (OCT) is an extremely rare occurrence, particularly in postmenopausal women.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case description:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We present the case of a 50-year-old postmenopausal woman who initially presented with symptoms of colonic obstruction. Further evaluation revealed SV in conjunction with a large ovarian mass with torsion. The patient underwent unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, subtotal colectomy, and end colostomy. Postoperative histopathological analysis confirmed a benign ovarian lesion.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Clinical discussion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>SV is associated with high morbidity and mortality but may be managed conservatively with endoscopic detorsion in the absence of hemodynamic instability or signs of colonic ischemia or perforation. However, when an unresolvable mechanical trigger such as a large ovarian mass is present, surgical intervention remains the mainstay of treatment. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of obstructing SV occurring concurrently with OCT in a postmenopausal woman.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>OCT should always be considered in the differential diagnosis for female patients of any age presenting with clinical features suggestive of small or large bowel volvulus.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Highlights<\/jats:title>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2025.111489","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,9]],"date-time":"2025-06-09T02:13:02Z","timestamp":1749435182000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Sigmoid volvulus in a postmenopausal woman with ovarian cyst torsion: A rare case report with review of literature"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"132","author":[{"given":"Sara","family":"Ramhormozian","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecologic Oncology, Imam Khomeini Hospital Complex (IKHC), Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hamed","family":"Kazem-Khaledi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Surgery, School of Medicine, Imam Khomeini Hospital Complex, Tehran University of Medical Science, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sina","family":"Delazar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Advanced Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology Rearch Center (ADIR), Imam Khomeini Hospital Complex, Tehran University of Medical Science, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Irandokht","family":"Alimohammadi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecologic Oncology, Imam Khomeini Hospital Complex (IKHC), Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Azadeh","family":"Tarafdari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of obstetrics and Gynecology, Imam Khomeini Hospital Complex (IKHC), Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Narges","family":"Zamani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of gynecologic oncology, Vali-Asr Hospital, Imam Khomeini Hospital Complex (IKHC), Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"issue":"6","key":"R1-48-20260311","first-page":"398","article-title":"Colonic volvulus","volume":"37","author":"Savitch","year":"2023","journal-title":"Clin.
