Evaluation of Cases of Intestinal Malrotation with Midgut Volvulus
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 12
Abstract
Congenital intestinal malrotation mostly presents as a paediatric surgical emergency. Patients most commonly present during childhood with acute abdominal symptoms. Intestinal malrotation can remain undetected and present at a variable age even during adulthood. [1] The patients may also present as intestinal obstruction or volvulus which is a surgical emergency. The accurate diagnosis and prompt surgical intervention can be lifesaving in such a scenario. The diagnosis of malrotation by imaging modalities is often challenging. [2] The knowledge of intestinal malrotation along with associated complications, embryological basis can help the surgeon in better understanding and prompt management of such cases. Keeping this in mind the current study focusses on identifying the cases of intestinal malrotation retrospectively in a period of three years. The aim was to analyze the data in order to highlight the age of presentation, symptoms and signs, diagnostic tests used to diagnose cases of intestinal malrotation.We have discussed the surgical intervention and complications in such cases with their clinical implications.
