Özet

Gastric volvidus within a paraesophageal hiatal hernia is rarely seen in childhood. We report a twenty month old boy with gastric volvulus secondary to paraesophageal hernia. The gastric fundus bulged into the right hemithorax through esophageal hiatus. The hernia was reduced by laparatomy and a Boix-Ochoa antireflux procedure was performed. Postoperative upper GI contrast study demonstrated resolution of GER and a normal positioned stomach. The patient is symptom free at 8 months follow-up.
