Laparoscopic gastropexy for chronic intermittent gastric volvulus.

Abstract
The traditional surgical treatment of chronic gastric volvulus involves laparotomy for derotation of the stomach and its fixation to the patients. We describe a 36-year-old man with organoaxial gastric volvulus who was treated successfully with laparoscopic gastropexy. He is asymptomatic four months later.
