Midgut malrotation and associated Hirschsprung's disease: a diagnostic dilemma.
Malrotation and Hirschsprung's disease (HSD) are rarely reported together. We report our experience with three patients who presented during the neonatal period in whom the association resulted in diagnostic difficulty. In this report, we focus on the clinical presentation, diagnosis and appropriate management.
