Özet

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.
