GARCIA-HERNANDEZ, Carlos et al. Roux-en-Y partial volvulus in biliary-digestive reconstruction in children. Cir. cir. [online]. 2023, vol.91, n.6, pp.844-847.  Epub 30-Jan-2024. ISSN 2444-054X.  https://doi.org/10.24875/ciru.22000346.

Various complications occur after a biliary-digestive reconstruction. Volvulus of a segment of the biliodigestive loop has not been described. Two patients who underwent biliodigestive bypass, years later, began with sudden and intense abdominal pain, associated with a volvulus with necrosis of a segment of this biliodigestive loop. This complication occurred many years after the initial correction, and manifested with sudden abdominal pain without impaired liver function, as occurred in these patients.
