Intestinal malrotation is a developmental anomaly that occasionally causes an unusual array of symptoms in adults.

Appendicitis should be considered when characteristic signs and symptoms are present, even if the location of abdominal pain is atypical.

Dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) is a procedure performed for the treatment of tearing (epiphora) due to blockage of the nasolacrimal duct. Tears originate in the lacrimal gland, located at the upper outer margin of the eye. As tears cross the eye with each blink, they are directed into small openings in the eyelids called puncta. From this point, tears travel through a pathway known as the canalicular system into the lacrimal sac. The lacrimal sac is located between the eye and the nose, and funnels tears into the nasal cavity through the nasolacrimal duct (Figure 1). As this is quite a long path for tears to travel, there can be many causes of excessive tearing. Blockage of the nasolacrimal duct is one common cause, and can be treated by creating a direct opening from the lacrimal sac into the nasal cavity in a procedure known as DCR. The evaluation and management of tearing may involve both an ophthalmologist and an otolaryngologist.

-Hypopigmented spots, in combination with a family history of bilateral deafness, strongly suggest neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF-2), an autosomal-dominant disorder. The spots described actually represent cafe-au-lait spots that are usually hypopigmented (unlike the hyperpigmented cafe-au-lait spots found in NF-1 ). Deafness is caused by bilateral acoustic neuromas, a characteristic neurologic manifestation of the syndrome.
