Congenital malformations of the liver are rare occurrences. We are reporting a case of malrotation of the liver. The patient was asymptomatic and had undergone a non-contrast CT scan of the upper abdomen, which showed malrotation of the liver. The purpose of submitting this case report is to make radiologists and surgeons aware of this unusual anatomical variation. Malrotation of the liver as a part of heterotaxy syndrome or situs ambiguous has been reported, but isolated malrotation of the liver without polysplenia in an adult male is a rare entity. A similar case has been reported in the literature as an incidental autopsy finding. Relevant references to this case are given below.
肝脏先天性畸形较为罕见。我们报告一例肝脏旋转不良病例。该患者无症状,接受了上腹部非增强CT扫描,结果显示肝脏旋转不良。提交本病例报告的目的是让放射科医生和外科医生了解这种不寻常的解剖变异。肝脏旋转不良作为内脏反位综合征或内脏位置不明确的一部分已有报道,但成年男性中孤立性肝脏旋转不良且无多脾症的情况实属罕见。文献中曾有类似病例作为尸检偶然发现被报道。以下给出该病例的相关参考文献。
