Abstract

BACKGROUND: Duodenal atresia is a common cause of intestinal obstruction in neonates. It is associated with other congenital anomalies like Down's syndrome, annular pancreas etc.

CASE PRESENTATION: We present a case of a two days old male baby presented to us with bilious vomiting since birth. It was associated with Down's syndrome, Annular pancreas and Malrotation.

CONCLUSION: Duodenal atresia is associated with other congenital anomalies but more than one congenital anomalies in a single patient is very rare.
