The cecum is found to be placed below the stomach and in the midline. Which of the following abnormality must have taken place while rotation of the gut?
In classical intestinal malrotation, this process fails; the duodenojejunal flexure lies to the right of the midline and the caecum is central, creating a narrow base for the small bowel mesentery, which predisposes to mid-gut volvulus (Fig. 6.21). Malrotation with volvulus is life-threatening and typically presents with bilious vomiting. Bile- Ref: Bailey & Love&;s Sho Practice of Surgery,E25,Page-85
