Polysplenia and jejunal atresia with agenesis of the dorsal mesentery

G A Barber et al. J Pediatr Surg. 1989 Nov.

Abstract

Polysplenia syndrome has been well described. It is associated with gastrointestinal atresia in patients with situs inversus abdominus; however, it appears that this case represents the first occurrence of polysplenia with jejunal atresia having agenesis of the dorsal mesentery and partial situs inversus abdominus.
