Abstract
|
|
|
|
An abnormal rotation or fixation of the small and large bowel may occur during development, and can result in various forms of intestinal malrotation. Intestinal malrotations are associated with anomalies such as heterotaxy and peritoneal encapsulation, as well as various other complications including midgut volvulus and an internal hernia. Gastrointestinal disorders occurring in patients with intestinal malrotation are difficult to diagnose because of the atypical symptoms and imaging features. We illustrate the various imaging features of intestinal malrotation, associated anomalies, and complications.
