Abstract
|
|
|
One of the interesting variations in the spectrum of intestinal obstruction is the intestinal Knot syndrome though a large variety of intestinal Knot formations has been described, the syndrome usually consists of a twisting of the terminal ileum around the sigmoid colon which has in turn rotated on its own axis to create a volvulus.
The prognosis is very serious unless prompt surgical intervention is carried out.
We experienced 2 cases of intestinal Knot syndrome at general surgery department of Wallace Memorial Baptist Hospital recently.
