摘要


Purpose: To describe our experience using barium studies and computed tomography (CT) to diagnose midgut malrotation in an adult. Methods: Barium studies and CT were used to diagnose midgut malrotation in a 60-year-old man who had intermittent chronic abdominal pain for several months. Results: Abdominal CT without contrast indicated complete malrotation of the bowel. Results of the barium enema showed that the ascending colon and transverse colon had left-sided deviation. The patient was radiologically diagnosed as having malrotation, but he had not yet undergone an operation. He reported only experiencing mild symptoms and wished to receive conservative treatment. Conclusions: Midgut malrotation should be considered in the differential diagnosis in patients presenting with chronic abdominal pain. A physical examination and imaging studies may help the surgeon make an accurate diagnosis.

目的:本病例我們使用鋇劑攝影和電腦斷層掃描來診斷成年人中腸旋轉不良。方法:將鋇劑攝影和電腦斷層掃描用於診斷慢性腹痛多月的60歲男性的中腸旋轉不良。結果:無顯影劑腹部電腦斷層掃描診斷腸道旋轉不良。鋇劑攝影顯示升結腸和橫結腸左側偏差。這名患者雖然診斷出腸道旋轉不良,但他認為目前只經歷輕微的症狀,並希望採取保守治療。結論:鑑別診斷慢性腹痛患者時應考慮中腸旋轉不良這個診斷。理學檢查和影像輔助可使外科醫生準確診斷中腸旋轉不良。
