Abstract
|
|
|
Nonrotation of the intestine is a rare disorder mostly found in childhood. During adult life, nonrotation of the intestine is found either during surgery or during the evaluation of unrelated symptoms. A preduodenal portal vein is also a rare anomaly. These anomalies are associated with situs inversus, and duodenal, pancreatic, biliary and cardiovascular anomalies. A 21-year-old man presented with mild constipation. During the evaluation, we found multiple intraabdominal anomalies, including nonrotation of the intestine, a preduodenal portal vein, polysplenia, and an annular and short pancreas.
