James A C Thorpe1, Christophoros N Foroulis, Samir Shah.   

Abstract

A rare case of intrathoracic gastric herniation resulting in intermittent gastric volvulus was observed in a 69-year-old female patient five months after left pneumonectomy for lung cancer. The mechanism of post-pneumonectomy intermittent gastric volvulus and the techniques of surgical repair are discussed.
