WINTERTON, DM; JOOMA, U e COX, SG. A rare occurrence of multiple intestinal atresias, with successful one-procedure resection and primary anastomosis. S. Afr. j. surg. [online]. 2023, vol.61, n.3, pp.44-46. ISSN 2078-5151. http://dx.doi.org/10.36303/sajs.3992.
Intestinal atresia is a common cause of neonatal bowel obstruction. Many theories exist relating to intestinal atresia, though the best explanation is related to vascular events. Duodenal atresia is thought to be due to a developmental anomaly of the intestine. A rare combination of concomitant Type III duodenal atresia, Type III B jejunal atresia, and Type I ileal atresia is presented. The differing pathogenesis of these atresias makes the condition exceptionally rare. This patient was successfully treated, via explorative laparotomy, with resection of the atretic segments and two primary anastomoses, without the need for enterostomies or stents.
