The likelihood of missing a surgically confirmed narrow mesenteric root was significantly lower (p\u2009=\u20090.0167) when considering the position of the duodenum in the lateral view, along with the jejunal loops and colonic position (0\/3), compared with relying solely on duodenal\u2013jejunal junction position in the anteroposterior view (29\/37).<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>The anteroposterior view alone is insufficient for diagnosing malrotation.
