There may be an angulation, rarelyamounting to a partial obstruction, involv-ing the midportion of the descendingduodenum; it is evident that this wasaccentuated to such a degree in the casesdescribed by Harris that he did not realizethat this veil extended up to and across theanterior surface of the cap; or, perhaps inhis case, the cap was not involved in thisveil (Fig. 7).
