Abstract
Splenic flexure volvulus is the least common form of colonic volvulus. Preoperative radiological diagnosis is usually made presumptively, based on plain radiographs and/or barium contrast enema study in patients presenting with acute large bowel obstruction. We report a case in which multidetector computer tomography (CT) findings were diagnostic of this condition, thus highlighting the usefulness of multiplanar reformatting.
