    Author: Saha S, Konar H, Chatterjee P, Basu KS, Chatterjee N, Thakur SB, Dasgupta A.
    Journal: J Pediatr Surg; 2009 Sep; 44(9):1827-30. PubMed ID: 19735834.
    Abstract:
    Congenital segmental dilatation of a portion of the small intestine in neonates causing intestinal obstruction is quite uncommon. We hereby report 2 such cases. In both infants, there was localized dilatation of the ileum with collapse of the distal bowel and functional intestinal obstruction without loss of continuity of the bowel wall or lack of ganglion cells.
