Gastric Dilatation Volvulus

GDV stands for Gastric Dilatation and Volvulus. This life-threatening condition is caused by the filling of the stomach with gas; “bloat” or gastric dilatation; and the twisting of the stomach over itself; volvulus. When the stomach twists it blocks off the entrance and exit, this requires surgery to fix.
