Abstract Gastric volvulus (GV) is a rare pathology in children, and therefore such clinical cases cause certain difficulties not only in diagnosis, but also in treatment. However, this problem is a clinical reality in pediatric surgery and seems to be underdiagnosed because of its rareness. These patients are threatened by the development of irreversible ischemic disorders in the affected organs (not only stomach), with a high degree of probability, they may need to perform an organ-removal operation at late admission. This article presents two clinical observations of pediatric gastric volvulus of various types, with different etiopathogenesis.
