  • Title: [The colonic atresia: an uncommon cause of neonatal intestinal obstruction].
    Author: Sánchez Jarquín MR, Alonso Calderón JL, Sanz N, Rollán V.
    Journal: Cir Pediatr; 1996 Jul; 9(3):125-7. PubMed ID: 9131972.
    Abstract:
    The intestinal atresia is a common cause of neonatal bowel obstruction, but the colonic atresia is an uncommon cause of neonatal intestinal obstruction. We present a newborn with congenital colon atresia who underwent laparotomy, revealing a colonic atresia type III. We recommend resection of the dilated proximal colon with primary anastomosis end to end if the patient is not perforated or in bad general conditions.
