Abstract:
Intestinal malrotation is a rare congenital anomaly that occurs in approximately one in 500 to 6,000 live births and is characterized by abnormal rotation of the intestine during fetal development. Intestinal malrotation in adults is rare, occurring in only 0.17% of CT scans performed in this age group. The occurrence of colon cancer in a patient with intestinal malrotation raises important difficulties and technical factors to consider when diagnosing and treating colon cancer.
