- Left-sided appendicitis: diagnosis and minimally invasive treatment Eudaldo M López-Tomassetti Fernández Julián Favre Rizzo Iván Arteaga González Juan Ramón Hernández Hernández Medicina Left laparoscopy sided appendicitis intestinal malrotation Intestinal malrotation and situs inversus can have impor - tant repercussions if acute abdominal pain develops. Intra - abdominal structures can have inverted position and thus may easily mislead the surgeon during physical examination. Fortunately, radiological exams have improved the preope - rative diagnosis of these patients. However, in difficult cases when an underlying surgical disease is suspected, laparoscopy remains the gold standard in order to diagnose and treat if possible the suspected disorder. We present a case of acute left-side appendicitis in a child with unknown congenital intestinal malrotation. In addition, this case stressed the va - lue of laparoscopy in daily practice to evaluate patients with atypical abdominal pain. 2014 artículo científico 2469-1119 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=199330862018 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1993 Acta Gastroenterológica Latinoamericana application/pdf Sociedad Argentina de Gastroenterología Acta Gastroenterológica Latinoamericana (Argentina) Num.1 Vol.44
