Malrotation in children with symptoms of gastrointestinal allergy and psychosomatic abdominal pain.
Acta Paediatrica Scandinavica 1985 March
Three children with malrotation 4.5, 5 and 9 years old at operation are presented. Their preliminary diagnoses were gastrointestinal (GI) allergy, GI allergy with colon irritable and psychosomatic abdominal pain. They were treated on an outpatient basis under these diagnoses for more than two years before their malrotations were discovered. In two children radiology did not demonstrate any signs of intestinal obstruction and in one of these children repeated radiological examinations were necessary for the diagnosis of malrotation. Operative findings were chronic volvulus with compromised blood flow and obstructive duodenal bands. The third child suffered acute strangulation ileus with gangrene of the intestines before diagnosis was made. We conclude that special consideration must be given to the possibility of malrotation when treating and radiologically investigating children with GI disturbances.
