Analysis of the value of lactate dehydrogenase to albumin ratio as a predictor of early mortality in patients with sigmoid volvulus undergoing emergency surgery

Aim: Sigmoid volvulus represents an important cause of mechanical large-bowel obstruction and may rapidly progress to life-threatening complications, particularly in elderly or frail patients. This study evaluated whether the preoperative lactate dehydrogenase-to-albumin ratio (LAR) predicts early mortality after emerg...
