Endoscopic Reduction of an Acute Gastric Volvulus.
Cureus
April 2024
Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, USA.
We are reporting a case of gastric volvulus in a 52-year-old man in the setting of a paraesophageal hernia initially identified on computerized tomography (CT). CT of the abdomen showed a large paraesophageal hernia with intra-thoracic herniation of the distal stomach and gastroduodenal junction, resulting in mesenteroaxial rotation consistent with acute gastric volvulus. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) confirmed the presence of the gastric volvulus, which was initially temporized with endoscopic detorsion.

Children (Basel)
January 2021
Pediatric Surgery Department, "Vittore Buzzi" Children's Hospital, 20154 Milan, Italy.
Background: Gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD), requiring surgical correction, and nutritional problems are reported after long-gap esophageal atresia (LGEA) repair and might jeopardize the postoperative course in some babies. We report an exploratory evaluation of the role of transgastric jejunostomy (TGJ) as a temporary nutritional tool before surgery for GERD in LGEA.
Methods: Seven infant patients operated on for LGEA with intra-thoracic gastro-esophageal junction (GEJ) and growth failure, requiring improvement in their nutritional profile in anticipation of surgery, were retrospectively evaluated.
