Abstract

Sigmoid volvulus and uterine torsion complicating pregnancy are extremely rare. Only 73 cases of sigmoid volvulus and fewer cases of Uterus torsion were reported world-wide. We report here a case of both sigmoid volvulus and uterus torsion complicating pregnancy in a preterm pregnancy in a multi-parous patient. Both uterus and sigmoid were preserved, neither Hysterectomy nor sigmoid resection were done. The patient had a successful recovery, and invasive management was taken to reduce both maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality.
