Midgut malrotation diagnosed by ultrasound

Clinical Radiology, 1987
Ultrasound was used to demonstrate the abnormal orientation of the mesenteric vessels in six cases of midgut malrotation. Five of these patients were known to have an abnormality of rotation before the ultrasound scan. In one patient malrotation was predicted from the ultrasound scan and confirmed by a barium study and at operation.

Malrotation of the Midgut in Infancy and Childhood

A.M.A. Archives of Surgery, 1958
Most physicians who encounter the entity which is the subject of this paper term it "malrotation of the colon." It could, perhaps, be more correctly entitled "malrotation of the midgut," since it is not always a failure of the rotational process of the colon that produces the symptomatology.

Malrotation With Midgut Volvulus in an Adolescent Male

Pediatric Emergency Care, 2022
Abstract Malrotation and midgut volvulus are conditions commonly described in infants, typically diagnosed within the first month of life. We present an unusual occurrence of high-grade obstruction because of malrotation and volvulus in an adolescent male.

A rare presentation of midgut malrotation as an acute intestinal obstruction in an adult: Two case reports and literature review [PDF]

INTRODUCTIONMidgut malrotation is a congenital anomaly presenting mainly in the childhood. Its presentation as an acute intestinal obstruction is extremely rare in adults usually recognized intra-operatively, therefore a high index of suspicion is always

Malrotation and Midgut Volvulus

2020
Disorders of intestinal rotation arise during gestation and represent the failure of normal 270-degree counterclockwise rotation of the intestines around the superior mesenteric artery (SMA). Malrotation is associated with a narrow mesenteric base and intestines what are not fixed to the abdominal sidewall or retroperitoneum.

Late presentations of midgut malrotation in children

The American Journal of Surgery, 1985
Malrotation of the intestine may become symptomatic in the older child and may manifest itself in atypical presentations. Older children may present with symptoms of less than 72 hours duration which are typical of acute duodenal obstruction. More frequently, however, the older child with malrotation will present with chronic abdominal pain with or ...

Midgut volvulus in an adult with congenital malrotation

The American Journal of Surgery, 2008
Congenital midgut malrotation, a rare anatomic anomaly that can lead to duodenal or small-bowel obstruction, rarely is observed beyond the first year of life. Symptomatic patients present with either acute bowel obstruction and intestinal ischemia with a midgut or cecal volvulus or with chronic vague abdominal pain.

Midgut malrotation, the reliability of sonographic diagnosis

Pediatric Radiology, 1992
We are unaware of any other anatomical study which deals with normal variations in the relationship between the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and the superior mesenteric vein (SMV). In our investigation in the majority of cases, the SMV lies to the right of the SMA.

Ultrasonographic diagnosis of midgut malrotation

Pediatric Surgery International, 1993
The conventional radiological techniques for the diagnosis of malrotation are prone to widely varying interpretation and may be both hazardous and impractical in the seriously ill infant. The superior mesenteric vein normally lies on the right ventral aspect of the artery, but is found on the left side in malrotation; this change in orientation can be ...

Ultrasonographic Diagnosis of Midgut Volvulus With Malrotation in Children

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, 2014
ABSTRACTObjectives:Midgut volvulus with malrotation is typical in newborns. We present our experience to emphasize the importance of suspecting midgut volvulus as a cause of abdominal pain also beyond infancy, particularly in relation to malrotation, and the relevance of ultrasonographic (US) signs in its diagnosis.Methods:A total of 34 patients (10 ...
