Abdominal Imaging , 05/11/09
Gaikwad A et al. - The authors present a case of 27-year-old woman with 33 weeks of gestation, who presented with acute abdomen and intrauterine fetal demise. CT angiogram with multidetector row scanner showed the midgut volvulus clearly and unequivocally. Unfortunately, the patient died of septicemia and extensive bowel infarction. CT angiogram images are presented here. To the authors knowledge, no similar case with gestational midgut volvulus and CT angiogram has been reported previously in the literature.
