摘要

Malrotation of the gut is a rare congenital anomaly that is usually clinically manifested in the neonatal period and occasionally at a later stage with signs of intestinal obstruction. Deaths associated with Ladd’s bands have not yet been described in the literature. We present the case of a 5-year-old boy who died of an intestinal ileus due to incarceration of a small bowel loop under a Ladd’s band. The treatment of choice, including surgical division of the band, was not performed mainly due to a misjudgement by the paramedics.
