Congenital segmental dilatation of colon with colonic atresia.

Congenital segmental dilatation of the colon belongs to a group of Hirschsprung's-like diseases with normal ganglion cells. The presentation is with chronic constipation affecting older children. We report a neonate with congenital segmental dilatation of the colon associated with sigmoid atresia. The child is well after a colostomy.

Multiple tubular and cystic intestinal duplications.

Duodenal and colonic duplication presenting as mass in a neonate is rare. We report a 52-cm-long tubular, total colonic and 5-cm-long cystic duodenal duplication in a two-day-old neonate. Both the duplications could be excised without resection of the normal bowel.
