Gastric volvulus is a rare condition in which the stomach rotates upon itself, Gastric volvulus can be classified according to axis of rotation (mesenteroaxial vs organoaxia1), extent of rotation (partial vs complete), and underlying cause (idiopathic vs secondary). The symptoms of the patients with gastric volvulus varies from mild, nonspecific vague abdominal discomfort to sudden, severe pain. The gastric volvulus can be diagnosed by a combination of chest and abdominal plain film and UGI barium study. The treatment of patients with gastric volvulus has classically been surgery for reduction of the volvulus and correction of the underlying abdominal pathologic feature predisposing to volvulus formation. In the recent literature, there have been several reports of endoscopic correction of gastrie volvulus. We recently experienced a case of chronic gastric volvulus which was corrected by endoscopic reduction, Thus, we report the case with a brief review of literatures.
