Explanation

Incomplete detorsion refers to a medical situation where something in the body that has become twisted or turned around, like an organ, is not fully untwisted. This can happen in various parts of the body, such as the stomach, intestines, or reproductive organs. It can cause discomfort, pain, or other health issues because the blood flow to that part of the body may be reduced. The term "incomplete" means that the process of untwisting is not fully done, so the problem is not completely resolved.
