Fifty-eight children with isolated malrotation of the midgut were treated in our service between 1970 and 1993. They presented with acute bilious vomiting in 75% of cases. The remaining 25% consulted for various digestive symptoms. Diagnoses were established by an upper gastrointestinal radiographic study. Prognoses were good whenever an emergency operation was performed.
