The boy from central China’s Henan province was admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University recently.
He showed symptoms of stomachache and vomiting, and was diagnosed with acute volvulus, a bowel obstruction resulting from a loop of intestine twisting around itself and its supporting tissue.
