Comments on "Ileosigmoid knot in a patient with Down syndrome: a unique surgical emergency" by Boussaidane S <i>et</i> al. (Pan Afr Med J. 2021;38: 8)

Ileosigmoid knotting (ISK) is the wrapping of ileum or sigmoid colon around the other structure causing a double-loop intestinal obstruction. Both ISK and ISK complicating mental retardation are very rare clinical entities. In this commentary, I would like to discuss some details of ISK complicating mental retardation regarding to a published paper in The Pan African Medical Journal.
