Background: Volvulus is a rotation or twisting of part of alimentary tract around their vascular pedicle. Colonic volvulus is third leading cause of colonic obstruction worldwide. Sigmoid colon is primary site of colonic volvulus but synchronous sigmoid and transverse colon volvulus is exceedingly rare. Methods: A systematic review of 12 cases received from various search engines, published between 2000 to 2022 are included. Age, gender, etiology, symptoms, investigation modalities, surgical approach, intraoperative findings and post-operative events are analyzed scientifically. Results: Mean age group of all patients are older except two cases of early age group. Etiological factors are mainly physiological followed by anatomical factors. Majority of cases present early with abdominal obstruction and distension before developing features of peritonitis. In maximum number of cases left and transverse colectomy or extended left hemicolectomy have been performed. Primary anastomosis has been done in majority cases. In post-operative period of a lot of cases documented for surgical site infection. Conclusion: Incidence of synchronous sigmoid and transverse colon is extremely rare. Preoperative diagnosis is difficult even if CT scan shows in some cases “double whirl” sign. There are no guidelines for management of synchronous volvulus and a tailored approach should be used in such cases.
