Intestinal nonrotation is a subtype of malrotation and it is usually detected incidentally in adulthood. Although nonrotation is often asymptomatic, patients with this condition are at increased risk of conditions that may require emergency surgery, such as intestinal obstruction and necrosis. In relation to our case of a 52-year-old male patient diagnosed with intestinal nonrotation in radiological examinations performed for renal colic, the current status in the literature was discussed. In conclusion, in cases of intestinal nonrotation, radiologists and surgeons should be alert to this possibility as the diagnosis and treatment processes will be affected.

Öz

İntestinal nonrotasyon, malrotasyonun bir alt tipidir ve genellikle erişkin dönemde tesadüfen tespit edilir. Nonrotasyon genellikle asemptomatik olmasına rağmen, bu hastalar, ileus ve nekroz gibi acil cerrahi gerektirebilecek durumlar açısından yüksek risk altındadır. Olgumuzda renal kolik nedeniyle yapılan radyolojik incelemelerde intestinal nonrotasyon tanısı alan 52 yaşında erkek hastanın literatüre ışığında mevcut durumu tartışıldı. Sonuç olarak, intestinal nonrotasyon varlığında tanı ve tedavi süreci etkileneceğinden radyologlar ve cerrahlar bu duruma karşı uyanık olmalıdır.
