Abstract
Gastric dilation and volvulus
syndrome (GDV) is characterized by gastric
distension trapping lngesta, fluids and gas,
subsequent twisting of distended stomach
along its longitudinal axis at esophageal
cardia and pylorus (Willard, 1995). Several
complications of GDV like spleenic
necrosis, cardiac arrhythmias, reperfusion
injury etc, are common (De Nova, 1996).
The purpose of this communication is to
discuss the surgical management and an
unusual complication of intussusception
after surgical correction of GDV in a Great
Dane dog.
