PRIMARY TORSION AND IDIOPATHIC SEGMENTAL INFARCTION OF OMENTUM
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
Torsion and infarction of the greater omentum are two rare clinical situations which present as an acute abdomen. Nevertheless, knowledge concerning these two problems can help the surgeon in proper diagnosis and treatment. Since the first report on primary torsion by Eitel in 1899, a few hundred more have been reported and some collective reviews published to date. In this study we will present a complete review concerning the history, classification, pathophysiology, clinical manifestations and treatment of these disorders. In addition, we will report seven cases, four of whom developed primary torsion and the other three idiopathic segmental infarction of the omentum.
