Manejo quirúrgico de atresia duodenal por páncreas anular y atresia intestinal IIIb.

Background: The presence of duodenal atresia related to type IIIb intestinal atresia is a rare association, with few cases reported in the literature, representing a surgical challenge considering that even isolated cases of type IIIb intestinal atresia are a challenge. The objective was to report the successful surgical management of a case of a complex intestinal malformation, characterized by duodenal occlusion secondary to annular pancreas and type IIIb intestinal atresia, with intestinal malrotation by definition and the presence of Meckel's diverticulum. Clinical case: We present the case report of a newborn sent to the second level of care with a diagnosis of duodenal obstruction not diagnosed prenatally, which resulted in duodenal atresia due to annular pancreas and type IIIb intestinal atresia according to the Grosfeld classification. The presence of duodenal atresia with type IIIb intestinal atresia is an extremely rare condition, even more so associated with annular pancreas. These cases are a challenge considering the short length of the small intestine and its consequent need for total parenteral nutrition for a prolonged period. Conclusions: The surgical management of this complex intestinal malformation resulted in a case with an adequate post-surgical evolution, based on the immediate start of enteral feeding with a short period of need for total parenteral nutrition that finally resulted in a short hospital stay.
