Reversed intestinal rotation

Radiology. 1985 Dec;157(3):603-4. doi: 10.1148/radiology.157.3.4059546.

Abstract

The authors report a case of reversed intestinal rotation and review the embryology, clinical presentation, and radiographic findings of this disorder. Although this developmental anomaly of the bowel is rare, it may be diagnosed by the distinctive position, course, and narrowing of the transverse colon.
