Sigmoid Volvulus Surgery in Thane – Causes, Symptoms & Emergency Surgical Management
Advanced Colorectal & Intestinal Emergency Surgery in Thane by Dr. Ankur Bhanushali
General, Laparoscopic, Emergency & Colorectal Surgery Specialist
What Is Sigmoid Volvulus?
Sigmoid volvulus is a serious intestinal emergency in which the sigmoid colon (lower part of the large intestine) twists around itself, causing acute bowel obstruction and cutting off blood supply to the intestine.
If not treated urgently, sigmoid volvulus can lead to:
- Intestinal gangrene
- Perforation
- Severe infection (peritonitis)
- Septic shock
- Death
This condition requires immediate hospitalization and emergency surgical care.
Dr. Ankur Bhanushali specializes in early diagnosis and life-saving surgical management of sigmoid volvulus in Thane.
