title: An unusual association of small bowel atresia and biliary atresia: a case report.
abstract: The embryological development of the hepatobiliary bud presupposes that biliary and duodenal malformations are often associated. On the other hand, the association of biliary atresia with more distal small bowel malformations, possibly due to a vascular accident, seems to be fortuitous. We herewith report such a case and, on reviewing the literature, have found only two previous similar observations.
