A Case of Jejunal Atresia Associated With Heterotrophic Pancreas and Meckel's Diverticulum.

Curēus 2022 December
Apart from meconium ileus, amniotic fluid plug syndrome, malrotation of the gut, Hirschprung's disorder, trauma, and other rare causes, bowel atresia is one of the most common causes of bowel obstruction in newborns. Jejunal atresia can affect multiple lengths of the bowel. The higher the level of atresia, the greater the severity. The outcome of bowel atresia related to surgical repair is favorable. In general, both mortality and morbidity are affected by affiliated medical conditions such as preterm birth, cystic fibrosis, and other congenital anomalies; the sophistication of the lesion; and surgical complications. We present the case of a one-day-old baby who had two episodes of bilious vomiting with abdominal distension within 10 minutes of birth. The baby was advised to undergo ultrasonography of the abdomen and pelvis for further evaluation, and the findings were reported.
