Popis: Volvulus of the caecum is a rare entity in childhood. We report on a case of caecal volvulus in a 6-year-old child, admitted with clinical symptoms of gut occlusion and shock. Outcome was favourable after surgical treatment. The epidemiological, clinical, radiological aspects and therapy are discussed in light of data of the literature.
