Abstract
In patients with intestinal malrotation, Ladd bands are known to cause obstruction of the duodenum and small bowel. However, acute obstruction of the colon from Ladd bands has not been previously described. We report a case of complete obstruction of the hepatic flexure of the colon secondary to a Ladd band in a previously healthy teenage boy.Entities:
