<unk>  a twisting of all or part of the stomach by more than 180 degrees with obstruction of the flow of material through the stomach, variable loss of blood supply and possible tissue death. The twisting can occur around the long axis of the stomach, this is called organoaxial or around the axis perpendicular to this, called mesenteroaxial. Obstruction and ischemia are more likely in mesenteroaxial twisting than with organoaxial. About one third of the cases are associated with a hiatus hernia. Treatment is surgical.
