A movement in which the plantar surface of the foot rotates away from the mid-line of the body. Another way to describe this movement is to say that the plantar surface (sole) of the foot turns laterally, i.e. turns outwards. Eversion of the soles of the feet so that they turn outwards to face away from each other.
A small-bowel obstruction (SBO) is caused by a variety of pathologic processes. The leading cause of SBO in industrialized countries is postoperative adhesions (60%), followed by malignancy, Crohn disease, and hernias.
The findings of ischemia in closed loop obstruction are the same as in patients with other causes of mesenteric ischemia: bowel wall thickening; mesenteric edema; ascites; enhancement of the bowel in ischemia can be normal, increased due to reperfusion or there can be lack of enhancement, like in this case.
