Trends in the Evaluation and Treatment of Patients Presenting With Sigmoid Volvulus Over the Past 15 Years
CT scans and CRP are increasingly being used, while surgical trends are progressing more slowly in the management of sigmoid volvulus patients, although these changes have not been associated with detectable changes in outcomes. Limited power and confounding may obscure small effects and have limited our findings. Larger, multi-center studies may help to better elucidate these trends.
