ABSTRACT: The simultaneous double volvulus of the transverse colon and sigmoid in the same patient is a rare cause of intestinal occlusion. Two cases were observed in general surgery in Kati. Its clinical symptomatology does not differ from other occlusions as well as simple radiological images. It is an extreme surgical emergency, the diagnosis is generally intraoperative. Extensive left hemi colectomy with terminoterminal rectal anastomosis was performed. The surgical follow-up was simple.
