A rare complication of pneumonectomy: hiatal hernia associated with gastric volvulus.
Asian Cardiovasc Thorac Ann. 2007 Dec; 15(6):518-20.AC

Abstract

A rare case of intrathoracic gastric herniation resulting in intermittent gastric volvulus was observed in a 69-year-old female patient five months after left pneumonectomy for lung cancer. The mechanism of post-pneumonectomy intermittent gastric volvulus and the techniques of surgical repair are discussed.
