Abstract

Intestinal obstruction is not uncommon in infants. The common causes of intestinal obstruction in the neonatal period are Hirschsprung disease, intestinal atresia, meconium ileus, and intussusception. However, small bowel obstruction caused by a congenital band is very rare. We report a 27-day-old baby who was admitted with abdominal distension and fever. The abdominal X-ray revealed massive bowel dilatation and the contrast gastrografin enema suggested a distal small bowel obstruction. The explolaparotomy showed small bowel entrapment due to an unusual anomalous congenital band.

저자들은 발열과 식욕저하를 주소로 패혈증 의증으로 전원 된 27일된 신생아에서 구토와 혈변 등은 없었으나, 입원 당시 복부팽만과 단순복부촬영에서 보인 소장 확장소견으로 개복술을 실시한 결과 선천성 밴드에 의해 내탈장된 소장이 압박되어 유발된 장폐색증 1예를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.
