Asymptomatic malrotation: Diagnosis and surgical management An American Pediatric Surgical Association outcomes and evidence based practice committee systematic review

摘要

Objective: Patients with malrotation, or an intestinal rotation abnormality (IRA), can experience serious adverse events. Increasingly, asymptomatic patients are being diagnosed with malrotation incidentally. Patients with symptomatic malrotation require surgery in an urgent or semiurgent manner to address their symptoms. The treatment of asymptomatic or incidentally discovered malrotation remains controversial.
