Brief Summary

Objective: The small bowel volvulus is a rare cause of intestinal obstruction which may occur in utero and whose prenatal diagnosis is difficult.Sonographic signs are mainly indirect and non specific.The aim of this study is to present a retrospective analysis of prenatal sonographicfindings in fetal segmental midgut volvulus.Thanks to this series the investigators could highlight the more specifics signs of the volvulus included a new pattern.
