Recurrent sigmoid volvulus and pseudo-obstruction patients undergoing PEC compared to neurogenic patients have poorer outcomes with higher complication rates and shorter life expectancy. We advocate that high volume specialist units undertake PEC. The significant associated risks of PEC require careful consideration when determining patient suitability. Utilizing risk stratification scores may help guide shared decision making between patients, relatives and clinicians.
