Zusammenfassung:Abstract Intestinal obstruction is a common surgical emergency that requires prompt intervention. We present a case report of a 30-year-old male with recurrent intestinal obstruction due to sigmoid volvulus. Our case highlights the challenges associated with managing recurrent intestinal obstructions caused by adhesions following surgical interventions for sigmoid volvulus. It emphasizes the need for careful evaluation and meticulous surgical techniques to minimize the risk of adhesion formation and subsequent complications.
