  • good music!

  • most common type of colonic volvulus--sigmoid volvulus 65%

  • Very well done surgery. Most people would have ended up with a colostomy bag.

  • Maurice Gibb of the Bee Gees died from a similar affliction. I am curious as to HOW the intestines can twist around upon themselves. I had always thought that your 'guts' stay in the same place - just like your heart or your lungs. I understand that there are situations where some other tissue may grow and then bind to the intestines - there by cutting off the blood flow, but how does an intestine twist upon its self?

    Really interesting vid, and terrific music to go with it! Thanks!

  • awesome i just saw this at school xD

  • WTF! Is he still alive???
