INTRODUCTIONGastric volvulus is a rare surgical emergency with a high mortality rate that requires urgent surgical management.PRESENTATION OF CASEA 19-year-old male and 51-year-old female patient underwent emergency surgery with a prediagnosis of acute abdomen syndrome, and a 60-year-old female patient underwent elective surgery due to diaphragmatic hernia. Abdominal exploration revealed gastric volvulus together with perforation in received emergency surgery patients, and a mesenteroaxial gastric volvulus due to diaphragmatic defect in third patient.DISCUSSIONGastric volvulus is classified into four subgroups depending on the mechanism of development, and organoaxial form is the most common type of gastric volvulus. The most challenging step in diagnosing gastric volvulus is the consideration of this diagnosis.CONCLUSIONPreoperative diagnosis is often difficult, and its management involves surgical correction of the pathology followed by institution of resuscitative treatment.
