Advanced Colorectal & Emergency Abdominal Surgery in Thane by Dr. Ankur Bhanushali
General, Laparoscopic, Colorectal & Emergency Surgery Specialist
What Is Colonic Volvulus?
Colonic volvulus is a serious intestinal emergency in which a segment of the large intestine twists around itself, causing acute bowel obstruction and loss of blood supply to the affected bowel. If not treated urgently, it can progress to bowel gangrene, perforation, peritonitis, and septic shock.
The most commonly affected parts are:
✔ Sigmoid colon (most common)
✔ Cecum
✔ Transverse colon (rare)
Colonic volvulus requires immediate medical attention and often emergency surgery.
Dr. Ankur Bhanushali has extensive experience in managing acute bowel obstruction and colonic volvulus, including life-saving emergency surgeries in Thane.
