Abstract

<p>A rare case of congenital intestinal atresia associated with Hirschsprung’s disease was described. A 0-day-old boy who was diagnosed as having small bowel atresia underwent intestinal resection with anastomosis. Postoperatively, he showed poor sucking of milk and abdominal distention. However, he soon recovered by enema and was discharged. In his one-month follow-up as an outpatient, he showed abdominal distention, and abdominal X-ray revealed dilation of the colon. Therefore, contrast enema was scheduled. However, before the examination, he required emergent hospitalization because of high fever due to enterocolitis. Then, he was diagnosed as having Hirschsprung’s disease on the basis of the findings of contrast enema and histopathological examination of rectal mucosa. At the age of four months, laparoscopy-assisted pull-through was performed and he had an uneventful postoperative course.</p>
