[Annular pancreas. Report of a case and review of the literature].
The authors present a case of newborn pre-term with birthweight of 2,250 g. There was polyhydramnios. On the first day she developed jaundice suggested upper intestinal obstruction. A plain radiograph of the abdomen confirmed the previous finding of obstruction of the duodenum, which showed a "double bubble" image with no other gas shadow in the rest of the abdomen. Contrast rodiologic examination of the abdomen confirmed total obstruction of the duodenum second portion. On the 2nd day after birth, laparotomy revealed an annular pancreas. The reconstruction was made by a side-to-side proximal duodeno-jejuno-anastomosis. The postoperative course was uneventful. Barium radiography at one month postoperatively was good.
