A rare case of neonatal intestinal obstruction

ABSTRACT

Omphalocele minor is often associated with the presence of other anomalies compared to that of omphalocele major. The occurrence of intestinal atresia is seldom associated with omphalocele minor. Prompt diagnosis and intervention can prevent morbidity and mortality. Following is a rare case report of combination of omphalocele minor and intestinal atresia with strangulation of the proximal bowel.
