October 13th, 2009. 1  Has anyone looked into the ph balance connection - ie. we are all probably very acidic (around 4 or 5) on the ph scale rather than what is considered normal (7). According to the books I've read on the subject, dark, green, leafy vegetables seem to be the only way to get alkaline again.
Pathophysiology. Intestinal malrotation occurs due to disruption of the normal embryologic development of the bowel. Understanding of normal abdominal development aids in the understanding of the etiology of the clinical findings seen with malrotation. The alimentary tract develops from the embryologic foregut, midgut, and hindgut.
Some diseases, such as cancer, require the surgical removal of diseased portions of bowel. The bowel may have to be rerouted through an artificially created hole (stoma) in the abdomen so that faeces can still leave the body. A colostomy is an operation that connects the colon to the abdominal wall, while an ileostomy connects the last part of the small intestine (ileum) to the abdominal wall.
