A member asked:
What is congenital nonrotation of the bowel and mildly dilated appendix measure 1cm. i had a ct scan and that was results and not sure what it means.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Google for pics: In nonrotation,the herniated midgut loop fails to undergo its 180° rotation,although the first 90°rotation occurs as normal.The result is that the original caudal (tail) limb (mainly colon) returns to lie on the left side of the abdominal cavity and the original cranial limb (consisting of ileum and jejunum) passes to lie on the right side. If a volvulus occurs,it can pinch the SMA and cause probs
