AI Article Synopsis

  • Intestinal malrotation is a rare condition that develops during embryonic growth and is not commonly seen in adults, particularly in relation to colon cancer.
  • Current literature lacks documentation of fully laparoscopic colonic resections for adenomas in patients with malrotation.
  • To safely carry out laparoscopic surgery on these cases, a preoperative evaluation of the vascular anatomy using computed tomography is essential.

Article Abstract

Intestinal malrotation is an embryologic anomaly rarely presenting in adults especially in association with colon cancer. Fully laparoscopic colonic resection has not yet described in literature for adenomas in malrotation. Preoperative assessment of vascular anatomy by computed tomography is considered mandatory to perform safely laparoscopic surgery.

Congenital diarrhea and enteropathies (CODEs) are a rare heterogeneous group of inherited disorders that typically present with severe chronic diarrhea during the first weeks of life. As a broad range of illnesses can present similarly in infants, establishing a definitive cause for CODEs is challenging. In this report, two infants were suspected to have CODE, with neonatal-onset chronic diarrhea and protein-losing enteropathy finally found to be due to intestinal malrotation and chronic midgut volvulus.

Giant inguinal hernia with mal-rotation in a resource-limited area: Case report.

School of postgraduate, Amoud University, Somalia; Faculty of Science, Charles University, Czechia. Electronic address:

Introduction: Giant inguinoscrotal hernias (GIH), defined as hernias extending below the inner thigh midpoint in a standing position, are rare and often seen in resource-limited settings due to delayed medical care. These hernias pose surgical challenges, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where standardized management protocols are lacking, and risks such as cardiorespiratory compromise are significant.

Case Presentation: A 55-year-old male presented with a large, irreducible right inguinoscrotal hernia of 1.

Internal hernias are one of the rare causes of intestinal obstruction and usually is the diagnosis of exclusion. Para-duodenal hernias (PDH) are rare congenital disorders that occur due to malrotation of the midgut in the embryonic phase of development. They can be asymptomatic or can present as an incarcerated, strangulated, or even obstructed internal hernia.

Predicting postoperative adhesive small bowel obstruction in infants under 3 months with intestinal malrotation: a random forest approach.

Electronic address:

Objective: This study aimed to develop a predictive model using a random forest algorithm to determine the likelihood of postoperative adhesive small bowel obstruction (ASBO) in infants under 3 months with intestinal malrotation.

Methods: A machine learning model was used to predict postoperative adhesive small bowel obstruction using comprehensive clinical data extracted from 107 patients with a follow-up of at least 24 months. The Boruta algorithm was used for selecting clinical features, and nested cross-validation tuned and selected hyper-parameters for the random forest model.
