Suprahepatic interposition of the colon in association with Down's syndrome: report of a case.
A patient in whom suprahepatic interposition of the colon was found with primary trisomy 21 (Down's syndrome) is described. While both syndromes are rare, their coincidental occurrence in the same patient has not been previously reported. The possibility that a chromosomal abnormality may exist in patients who have suprahepatic interposition of the colon is entertained.
