ABSTRACT
Primary torsion of the greater omentum is a rare cause of an acute abdomen in children, which often mimic other acute abdominal conditions. Resection of the infarcted segment is the treatment of choice. Here, a case of torsion of the greater omentum, diagnosed with preoperative computed tomography and subsequently managed by laparoscopic surgery, is reported. The patient was discharged three day after surgery without any complication. Omental torsion can be accurately diagnosed and safely treated with a laparoscopy.
