    Abstract:
    A case of Apple Peel syndrome in a 1,800 g. premature female infant is reported. In a two stage approach, the dilated proximal segment of the jejunum was treated with jejunoplasty and termino-terminal anastomosis. After 55 days of total parenteral nutrition, oral feedings were instituted with good tolerance and satisfactory weight gain. Five months postoperatively, her weight is 5,500 g. and is on a standard diet for her age.
