Sigmoid volvulus is most common (75%) followed by volvulus of the caecum (15%), transverse colon (3%) and splenic flexure (2%). Synchronous volvulus of the caecum and sigmoid is very rare, with six reported cases in the literature to the best of our knowledge. We report two cases within 6\u00a0months. The key learning points include that classical radiological signs of both caecal and sigmoid volvulus may not be present, and that prompt, definitive management is necessary to prevent recurrence and morbidity.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjaa556","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,8]],"date-time":"2020-12-08T21:10:08Z","timestamp":1607461808000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Rare synchronous caecal and sigmoid volvulus: management of two cases"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"2021","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8278-3058","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Butt","family":"Muhammad","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"West Middlesex University Hospital, General Surgery, Isleworth, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lee","family":"Alice","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"West Middlesex University Hospital, General Surgery, Isleworth, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Aseem","family":"Rabiya","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, General Surgery, London, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Smith","family":"Jason","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"West Middlesex University Hospital, Colorectal surgery, Isleworth, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021020403262450600_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"293","DOI":"10.1097\/SLA.0b013e31828c88ac","article-title":"Colonic volvulus in the United States: trends, outcomes, and predictors of mortality","volume":"259","author":"Halabi","year":"2014","journal-title":"Ann Surg"},{"key":"2021020403262450600_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"91","DOI":"10.1055\/s-2008-1075856","article-title":"Volvulus: small bowel and colon","volume":"21","author":"Valsdottir","year":"2008","journal-title":"Clin Colon Rectal Surg"},{"key":"2021020403262450600_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"3","DOI":"10.1136\/bcr-2018-227375","article-title":"Very rare case of synchronous volvulus of the sigmoid colon and caecum causing large-bowel obstruction","volume":"12","author":"Roy","year":"2019","journal-title":"BMJ Case Rep"},{"volume-title":"Prevention, diagnosis and management of colorectal anastomotic leakage","year":"2016","author":"McDermott","key":"2021020403262450600_ref4"},{"key":"2021020403262450600_ref5","article-title":"Synchronous Sigmoideum- and Caecum volvulus","volume":"177","author":"Berg","year":"2015","journal-title":"Ugeskr Laeger"},{"key":"2021020403262450600_ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bcr-2016-217116","article-title":"Synchronous volvulus of the sigmoid colon and caecum, a very rare cause of large bowel obstruction","volume":"2016","author":"Islam","year":"2016","journal-title":"BMJ Case Rep"},{"key":"2021020403262450600_ref7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"803","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02050333","article-title":"Synchronous cecal and sigmoid volvulus - report of a case","volume":"35","author":"Moore","year":"1992","journal-title":"Dis Colon Rectum"},{"key":"2021020403262450600_ref8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"115","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02552660","article-title":"Simultaneous occurrence of sigmoid and cecal volvulus","volume":"28","author":"Singh","year":"1985","journal-title":"Dis Colon Rectum"}],"container-title":["Journal of Surgical Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jscr\/article-pdf\/2021\/1\/rjaa556\/36185432\/rjaa556.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"syndication"},{"URL":"http:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jscr\/article-pdf\/2021\/1\/rjaa556\/36185432\/rjaa556.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,8]],"date-time":"2021-02-08T10:33:57Z","timestamp":1612780437000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jscr\/article\/doi\/10.1093\/jscr\/rjaa556\/6122812"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,1]]},"references-count":8,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/jscr\/rjaa556","relation":{},"ISSN":["2042-8812"],"issn-type":[{"type":"electronic","value":"2042-8812"}],"subject":[],"published-other":{"date-parts":[[2021,1]]},"published":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,1]]},"article-number":"rjaa556"}}
