Situs inversus is a challenge to the physician, both for the diagnostic and for the therapeutic. A combination of partial situs inversus, annular pancreas and polysplenia with bowel malrotation has been reported in a newborn who presented as duodenal obstruction. Situs inversus is rare especially without heart malformation. All the abnormalities in this combination can be explained on the basis of multiple organ malrotation. It also demonstrates the necessity of meticulous investigation and precise description of the anomaly as far as the management of this case is concerned.
内脏反位对医生来说是一个挑战,无论是在诊断还是治疗方面。据报道,一名表现为十二指肠梗阻的新生儿存在部分内脏反位、环状胰腺、多脾症合并肠旋转不良的情况。内脏反位很罕见,尤其是没有心脏畸形的情况。这种组合中的所有异常都可以基于多器官旋转不良来解释。就该病例的处理而言,这也表明了细致检查和对异常情况进行精确描述的必要性。
