Gastric volvulus is a rare entity and an emergency condition. It is defined as gastric rotation on its axis > 180 degrees, it conditions stenosis to the passage of gastric content, and distension that eventually leads to compromise of parietal irrigation. A delayed diagnosis and/or treatment leads to strangulation or gastric perforation. This is the case of a 90-year-old patient with gastric volvulus, her diagnostic and therapeutic approach with laparoscopic gastropexy with good clinical outcomes.
