Abstract

The operations for congenital duodenal obstruction due to duodenal atresia with, annular pancreas still present a unique challenge.

We report a case of duodenal obstruction due to duodenal atresia with preduodenal portal vein, and annular pancreas, co-existing with intestinal malrotation, a right sided stomach and spleen in which, the patient had gastrojejunostomy.
