The 11th case of congenital short small intestine malrotation is described. Its clinical features associated diarrheic episodes and subobstructive symptoms. Recovery suggests that the functional adaptation of congenital and surgically-induced short small intestine may have the same quality. Neither anatomical (presence or absence of pyloric hypertrophy) nor clinical variants (obstructive and diarrheic forms) challenge the nosologic unicity of this syndrome, whose genetic character is unquestionable in most cases.
