“…Radiological findings of plain X-rays like bowel loops or air fluid levels in the mediastinum in patients are the most common and indicative signs that should alert the surgeon or the internist. 6,7 Even in asymptomatic cases, patients with incidental findings, like the above mentioned, in routine imagine procedures, should be informed about the potential risks of these modalities, and regarding the benefit of the surgical management.…”

Travmatik diafragma hernileri nadirdir, tanı ve tedavisinde bir takım güçlükler vardır. Bu yazıda künt travmadan üç yıl sonra tanı konulan ve splenik fleksuranın herniasyonu nedeniyle kolon obstruksiyonu gelișen sol diafragma hernili 43 yașındaki hastamızı sunduk. Hastamıza subtotal kolektomi ve primer iliokolik anastomoz yapıldı ve diafragmatik defekt tamir edildi. Akut kolon obstrüksiyonu gelișen hastalarda travma öyküsü varsa diafragma hernisinden șüphelenilmelidir.Anahtar Sözcükler: Travma, Diafragma Hernisi, İnkarserasyon.Traumatic diaphragmatic hernia (TDH) is uncommon and presents a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Herein, we present the case of a 43-year-old patient with left-sided TDH and colonic obstruction due to herniation of the splenic flexura of the colon, which was diagnosed three years after the initial blunt trauma. A subtotal colectomy and primary ileocolic anastomosis were performed and the diaphragmatic defect was repaired. TDH should be suspected in patients with an acute colonic obstruction, particularly if the patient has a history of trauma.

“…[53] Hiatal hernia is another rare cause of SV, in which hiatal gap is the entrapping factor. [54] Pneumatosis cystoides intestinalis, the presence of gas cysts in the bowel wall, is both a rare cause [55] and a rare complication [56] of SV with unexplained pathophysiology. Brown bowel syndrome (lipofuscinosis) is another rare cause of SV, in which oxidative stress arising from malnutrition causes necrosis and autophagy of smooth muscles resulting in atonia.…”

Sigmoid volvulus (SV) is common in elders. For this reason, most geriatric comorbidities accompany SV. Additionally, SV may associate with a great number of physiological or pathological entities. The purpose of this review is to evaluate the kind and the incidence of such comorbidities as well as to discuss their pathophysiology. To obtain all SV-related reports in worldwide data, an electronic search of the last 57-years’ literature (from 1967 to date) was made in Web of Science and PubMed databases by using ‘sigmoid volvulus’ heading. Additionally, we evaluated our results including 1,071 patients treated in 57-year period from June 1966 to July 2023. We noted comorbid entities in each case. Tens of physiological or pathological clinical entities may accompany SV. Some entities may be the cause or result of SV, while some others may mimic SV or mimicked by this disease. Moreover, some factors may predispose to SV, while some others may initiate it. Some of these comorbidities have cause and effect relations, while some others are coincidental. However, the relationship between SV and some comorbid entities as well as underlying pathologies are not clear enough.
