- Abstract
Dear Sir, We thank Dr. Atamanalp and his colleagues for their insightful comments about our article "Laparoscopic fixation of volvulus by extra-peritonealization: a case series" [[1]] We congratulate them on their impressive experience. For sigmoid volvulus, resection continues to be our default solution, but for very high-risk patients, or those who refuse to undergo resection for fear of anastomotic failure and its risks, including the need for a colostomy, fixation is a viable alternative; it does not preclude future resection in case of failure and volvulus recurrence. 1:STN:280:DC%2BB2Mzns1OnsA%3D%3D. 10.1007/s10151-022-02596-y 2 Atamanalp SS, Peksoz R, Disci E. Comments on "Laparoscopic fixation of volvulus by extra-peritonealization: a case series".
