We are hereby presenting a single case report on Transverse colon volvulus, as it is known to be so rare as to call it a once in a surgical lifetime diagnosis. Many surgeons go through their entire careers without coming across even a single such case. Altogether, only 100 cases have been documented in medical literature so far.1This makes it imperative that we disseminate the available knowledge regarding this condition, so as to allow for better patient management by facilitating early diagnosis and prompt management.
