title: An unusual late complication of neonatal small bowel surgery.
abstract: A case of acute intestinal obstruction in a 23-year-old male patient is presented. He had previously undergone a laparotomy in infancy at the age of 36 hours. Two primary enteroliths were found in proximal dilated jejunum, one obstructing an anastomotic stricture. The predisposing factors of enterolith formation are reviewed.
