Laparoscopic ladd procedure and cecopexy in the treatment of malrotation beyond the neonatal period

C T Frantzides et al. Surg Laparosc Endosc. 1996 Feb.

Abstract

Intestinal malrotation is rarely diagnosed beyond the neonatal period. Detailed gastrointestinal contrast studies are required in establishing the diagnosis. The treatment is surgical and involves lysis of adhesions and bands with or without cecopexy. Here we describe the first laparoscopic procedure for the treatment of malrotation.
