Abstract:
The occurrence of chromosomal aberrations resulting in congenital transposition of internal organs is rare. Isolated congenital stomach and spleen (multiple) transposition with partial pyloric stenosis, where the rest of the internal organs remain in their normal positions, to the best of our knowledge has not been reported before. Attention to, knowledge and records of this case should be considered vital for understanding future symptoms and occurrences and also for prevention of surgical mistakes.
