TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Malrotation and Volvulus A1 - Primus, Jason A1 - Martin, Colin A2 - Kline, Mark W. PY - 2018 T2 - Rudolph's Pediatrics, 23e AB - Midgut volvulus is a devastating consequence of the lack of bowel fixation that results in ischemic infarction of much of the small and large intestine, with short gut syndrome ensuing if volvulus is not recognized and treated emergently. A basic understanding of the embryological development of the gastrointestinal (GI) system is necessary for the management of malrotation. The spectrum of disease ranges from complete nonrotation to various degrees of incomplete rotation and rarely can even result in reverse rotation.
