This 2 day-old baby came in today with a distended abdomen and inability to pass meconium since birth. We operated and found complete situs inverts, malrotation and jejunal atresia. We resected the non-functioning segment, and did a Ladd's Procedure.
Jejunal atresia Type 1. Notice the sharp transition zone on the left between distended bowel and collapsed distal bowel. |
