Summary:

Description
  • Radiopaedia case ID: 86962
  • Image ID: 54452136
  • Image stack position: 14/84
  • Plane projection: Sagittal
  • Aux modality: C+ portal venous phase
  • Modality: CT
  • System: Gastrointestinal
  • Findings: CT findings show dilated loops of the small bowel with gas-fluid levels, the transitions are at two adjacent points along the course of dilated bowel (double beak sign at two sites of fusiform tapering). The bowel loops have a strange arrangement: The clump of dilated loops concentrates at the periumbilical region with the mesenteric vessels towards a central point. The wall bowel has a normal enhancement but mesenteric edema was suggestive of ischemic bowel. The whirl sign can be seen on coronal reconstruction. Intraperitoneal free fluid in the recto-vesical pouch, the left iliac fossa, and surrounding the liver.
