Situs inversus and malrotation

Abstract EN

Malrotation and affixation of the intestinal tract have long been recognized as clinical entities.

They have a variety of clinical presentations.

Malrotation of two organs is relatively rare, in this case report, we present a very rare (the fifth ease) of situs inversus and malrotatin of the intestinal tract.

Since the rotation of the intestinal tract and placement of the heart occurs simultaneously at the fourth week of fetal life, probably a single etiology is responsible for such a presentation.
