title: Radiological localization of the ampulla of Vater in an infant with duodenal atresia.
abstract: The authors describe an infant with a duodenal diaphragm in whom preoperative radiographs localized the ampulla of Vater within the medial wall of the diaphragm. This frequent close association must be kept in mind in order to avert surgical injury to this vital structure.
