Midgut Volvulus in Disguise: Acute Abdomen in Early Pregnancy.

Small bowel obstruction (SBO) in pregnancy is a challenging diagnosis. Case rarity, non-specific presentations, and the non-practicality of using X-ray/gamma-ray imaging modalities in pregnancy contribute to the increased difficulty in timely diagnosing midgut volvulus during pregnancy, thereby increasing maternal and fetal morbidity. We report a case of midgut volvulus in a 39-year-old lady, gravida 3, para 2, with two previous cesarean sections.
