Introduction: Cecal volvulus is a rare cause of intestinal obstruction that occurs 1% - 1.5% of all intestinal obstructions. Causes of volvulus are usually unknown but it can be due to a defective peritoneal fixation of the ascending colon and cecum in 10% and secondary causes (surgical adhesions, colonic carcinoma or diverticulitis). Case Presentation: A 56-year-old woman presented with colicky abdominal pain, bilious vomiting and abdominal distention for two days, who has no history of previous surgery and no other gastrointestinal symptoms or chronic illness. On examinations, she looks ill, dehydrated, abdomen massively distended with exaggerated bowel sound but no signs of peritonitis. CT abdomen with contrast finding: type 11 cecal volvulus seen in midline to the left above the umbilicus reaching 8 cm with ileocecal junction as well as the elongated appendix is reaching the right iliac fossa. Emergency exploratory laparotomy was done and the finding was, obstructing rectosigmoid tumor with cecal volvulus. Discussion: Cecal volvulus is one of the rare causes of mechanical intestinal obstruction which required urgent surgical intervention, and it occurs due to an axial twist of the caecum, ascending colon and terminal ileum around the mesenteric pedicle. Conclusion: Radiological imaging helps in the diagnosis of cecal volvulus especially CT scan with contrast as gold standard for both diagnosis and assessment for complications. However, this should not delay the time of intervention especially if patient presented at late stage with evidence of peritonitis or bowel ischemia and surgical right hemicolectomy is the most effective treatment option. The colonic pathology always should be assessed, as it could be the primary cause of cecal volvulus.
