The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of our simple landmark technique for laparoscopic detorsion and the Ladd's procedure (lap-Ladd) for malrotation with midgut volvulus in neonates and to identify the risk factors for reoperation after the lap-Ladd. ⋯ Our simple landmark lap-Ladd procedure demonstrated feasibility and good short-term outcomes in neonates with malrotation, regardless of the presence or absence of volvulus.
