Malrotation of gut is a congenital anomaly and patients usually present in childhood. Occasionally it may present in adulthood. Patients are usually asymptomatic when malrotation of gut is detected during investigations or operation. Also, it can cause longstanding abdominal symptoms and volvulus of gut. Rarely malrotation of gut may present with gastrointestinal neoplasm. We present a 60 year ...

background plain radiography and contrast radiologic studies are traditionally the main options in evaluating neonates presenting with bilious vomiting. while ultrasonography (us) is more available, its diagnostic accuracy is in question. objectives the purpose of this study is to determine the diagnostic accuracy of us in evaluating these patients with bilious vomiting. patients and methods al...

The importance of the hippocampus, in epileptic networks, which underpin temporal lobe epilepsy, have long been appreciated. Advances in MR imaging has facilitated the identification of structural lesions in the hippocampus. In the past few years, hippocampal malrotation or incomplete inversion of the hippocampus is increasingly reported in patients with and without epilepsy and the clinical si...

OBJECTIVES Malrotation of the femoral component can result in post-operative complications in total knee arthroplasty (TKA), including patellar maltracking. Therefore, we used computational simulation to investigate the influence of femoral malrotation on contact stresses on the polyethylene (PE) insert and on the patellar button as well as on the forces on the collateral ligaments. MATERIALS...

Abstract Aim The use of intramedullary nail fixation remains the operation choice for managing unstable and displaced tibia diaphyseal fractures. literature shows that although commonly performed, there is not a standard approach when performing nailing tibia; it could be hypothesised this lack standardisation may contributing to noted complications. This systematic review will look into in all...
