title: [Results of the treatment of patients with torsion of the sigmoid].
abstract: The results of treatment of 204 patients with torsion of the sigmoid colon are analysed. Total postoperative mortality was 14.2%. Sixty-eight patients were subjected to palliative operations of the type of ++de-torsion or ++de-torsion in combination with mesosigmoplication and sigmopexy. In this group of patients, 20.5% underwent a second operation for a recurrence of the disease in different periods after the first operation. The mortality rate after palliative operations was 13.2%. Resection of the sigmoid colon with an end-to-end anastomosis was carried out in 87 patients. The postoperative mortality was 13.7%. There were no fatal outcomes among patients who were treated by radical operation carried out in a planned order of preliminary detorsion. In 11.7% of cases, sigmoid torsion was complicated by gangrene. Seven patients (29.1%) died in the postoperative period.
