Gastric LCH present with chronic malena [21] and iron deficiency anemia. Duodenal lesions have presented with anemia unresponsive to iron therapy [22] or with overt upper GI bleeding.[mjdrdypu.org]
As a result of right sided torsion, the presentation usually mimics acute cholecystitis, acute appendicitis, cecal diverticulitis and epiploic appendagitis.[tropicalgastro.com]
It usually presents with acute onset right-sided abdominal pain. The most common risk factors are adult male between 40 and 50 years of age and obesity.[jdrntruhs.org]
The second such case is presented, together with a brief review of available literature. The pathogenesis of omental foraminae is discussed, and an additional aetiological mechanism is proposed.[unboundmedicine.com]

Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) scan of abdomen [Figure 1] and [Figure 2] showed a large, well-defined softtissuemass in the lower abdomen extending into the pelvis on the left side measuring 8.4 cm 6.6 cm 9.4 cm in size showing contrast[mjdrdypu.org]

A thorough blood workup reveals normal values in many cases [ 4 , 13 ]. The great majority of cases of omental torsion and infarction reported in the literature were segmental involving the right side of the omentum [ 14 , 15 ].[hindawi.com]
Lab workup and ultrasound were unremarkable. Management options were discussed with the patient and diagnostic laparoscopy was planned.[jpma.org.pk]
Although GI lesions are typically solitary, multiple ( 10) GI lesions have been reported in a single patient. [16] These lesions were detected in the sigmoid colon of a patient presenting with diarrhea and occultbloodpositive stool.[mjdrdypu.org]
Although cases of conservative treatment of primary torsion have been described in cases of partial volvulus, the treatment of complete torsion of the greater omentum with secondary necrosis is surgical [ 3 ].[em-consulte.com]

In all cases diagnosis was made by means of laparotomy, treatment was the resection of the affected segment, and there were no further complications.[gastrores.org]
