Original Research
Torsion and infarction of the greater omentum are two rare clinical situations
which present as an acute abdomen. Nevertheless, knowledge concerning these
two problems can help the surgeon in proper diagnosis and treatment. Since the
first report on primary torsion by Eitel in 1899, a few hundred more have been
reported and some collective reviews published to date. In this study we will
present a complete review concerning the history, classification, pathophysiology,
clinical manifestations and treatment of these disorders. In addition, we will report
seven cases, four of whom developed primary torsion and the other three
idiopathic segmental infarction of the omentum.
