ABSTRACT
A 12-year-old boy had undergone total gastrectomy for gastric volvulus with subsequent severe weight loss and malnutrition. A Hunt-Lawrence pouch was constructed to provide gastric reservoir capacity and the child at 4-years follow-up has regained near normal weight for his age and is attending to school and other activities.
