| Complications can include volvulus, intestinal obstruction, infarction, perforation, and hemorrhage. |
|
| Causes of intestinal obstruction include volvulus, intussusception, incarcerated hernia, and postoperative adhesions. |
|
| Postoperatively, the patient had a distal intestinal obstruction requiring reduction of a volvulus. |
|
| Wolbachia are bacterial symbionts of the major human filarias, including Onchocerca volvulus, the parasitic nematode that causes onchocerciasis. |
|
| Recurrent volvulus is rare, but a second bowel obstruction due to adhesions could occur later. |
|
| Constipation is a serious problem, because patients with PD are particularly susceptible to impaction, obstruction, volvulus, and paralytic ileus. |
|
| It is caused by Onchocerca volvulus, a parasitic worm, that breeds in water and that can live for up to fourteen years in the human body. |
|
| The study was focused mainly on determining moxidectin's activity against the adult worms of O. volvulus. |
|
| Much of the interest centers on two prescient suggestions made by the two scientists in their 1977 paper on Onchocerca volvulus, the filarial worm that causes onchocerciasis. |
|
| If extensive bowel is ischemic because of the volvulus, the bowel is untwisted and simply reduced into the abdominal cavity, and the abdominal wound is closed. |
|
| Human onchocerciasis is a disease caused by a filarial nematode Onchocerca volvulus. |
|
| Acute gastric volvulus is an uncommon but easily recognised surgical emergency with highly specific clinical symptoms. |
|
| Although initially reported as caecal volvulus, in hindsight there were features indicative of the herniation. |
|
| Respiratory distress, cardiac arrhythmia and serious complications, such as acute intestinal obstruction and volvulus of the colon, can be seen. |
|
| The diverticulum may contain pancreatic tissue and may obstruct or strangulate in a type of volvulus. |
|
| Because ivermectin kills the larvae but not the adult worms of O. volvulus, annual or biannual treatments would be necessary to prevent resurgence. |
|
| A majority of the pediatric patients from gastroschisis, followed by volvulus and necrotizing entercolitis. |
|
| Small bowel obstruction is a well-known problem after LRYGB caused by internal hernias, intussusceptions or volvulus. |
|
| Radiological contrast examination of the abdomen revealed an elongated colon, diverticulosis of the sigmoid, and an intermittent volvulus of the right colon. |
|
| At surgery, it was discovered that he had a volvulus of the entire small bowel around a fibrous band extending from the transverse colon to the pelvis. |
|
|
|
| Internal herniation of contents within a peritoneal sac of the right paramesocolic hernia formed abdominal cocoon which simulated volvulus neonatorum. |
|
| Volvulus classically appears on the upper GI as a spiral corkscrew of the duodenum. |
