    Author: Asano S, Konuma K, Rikimaru S, Inoue K.
    Journal: Z Kinderchir; 1982 Jan; 35(1):21-3. PubMed ID: 7064578.
    Abstract:
    A 4-year-old boy with a volvulus of the transverse colon is presented. The mildness of the obstruction made direct visualization of the twisted loop with barium enema possible. At laparotomy a congenital band between the transverse colon and the small intestine was found to have been the predisposing factor of the volvulus.
