Abstract

Gastric dilation-volvulus syndrome (GDVs) comprises acute gastric dilation (GD), acute gastric dilation-volvulus (GDV) and chronic gastric volvulus. This article, the first of two reviewing the management of GDVs in dogs, discusses the pathogenesis, pathophysiology, diagnosis and stabilisation of GDV. An article in the next issue will describe surgical and postoperative management of the condition.
