description Question In dogs with a gastric dilatation volvulus (GDV) treated surgically and undergoing a gastropexy, what is the rate of recurrence of GDV?   Clinical bottom line The category of research question was: Risk. The number and type of study designs that were critically appraised were: Sixteen studies were critically appraised. Two were prospective randomised controlled trials, two were prospective cohort studies, one was a case-control study, and eleven were case series. Critical appraisal of the selected papers meeting the inclusion criteria collectively provide zero/weak/moderate/strong evidence in terms of their experimental design and implementation: Weak. The outcomes reported are summarised as follows… A low rate of recurrence of GDV after gastropexy was consistently reported, although methodological limitations were recognised in all studies. In view of the strength of evidence and the outcomes from the studies the following conclusion is made… Overall, the studies provide weak evidence that the rate of recurrent GDV is low after gastropexy.
