                            <p>Günümüzdeki cerrahi gelişmeler ve literatürdeki bilgiler ışığında, sigmoid kolon volvulusunun tedavi ve mortalitesini etkileyen sorunlar eleştirilmiştir.Ocak 1965 - Şubat 1975 arasında kliniğimizde ivedili tedavi gören 17 sigmoid kolon volvulusu vakası sunulmuştur. Rezeksiyon uygulanan 10 vakada mortalite % 40, basit detorsiyon, peksi veya plikasyon uygulanan 7 vakada ise % 14,3 olarak saptanmıştır. Sigmoidoskopik entübasyon hiçbir hastada uygulanmamış olmakla birlikte olumlu yönleriyle seçkin vakalarda yararlı olabileceği kanısına varılmıştır.Laparatomide, nekroz saptanan vakalarda yüksek mortalite oranına karşın rezeksiyon veya Paul - Mikulicz eksteriorizasyonu uygulanması zorunludur. Barsak canlı ve normal görünümdeyse basit detorsiyon, peksi yaparak kesin tedaviyi ilerideuygulanacak seçkin rezeksiyona bırakmak hasta yaşamı yönünden olumlu bir karar olacaktır.</p></trans-abstract>

Mortality rates were found as; 40 % in 10 resection  cases 14,3 % in seven simple detorsion, pexy or pilication cases.Although sigmoidoscopic intubation has never been performedin any of our cases, we believe that it can be advantageous in elective cases.A high mortality rate is common, when faced with necrosis of the bowel, in laparatomy. Resection or Paul - Mikulicz typeof exteriorization is a must. If the gut is viable and normal in appearance, we recommend that simple detorsion and paxy be performed to save the patients life. When the patient has recovered for further surgical intervention, elective rezectionshould be performed.</p></abstract>
