Resumen
Congenital duodenal obstruction groups together a broad spectrum of abnormalities in the development of the small intestine; it is classified according to its etiology as both extrinsic and intrinsic. Its presentation is relatively common, having an incidence of 1: 2.500-10.000 live births and it is normally associated with aneuploidy (such as trisomy 21) and cardiac malformations. Images play an important role in the diagnostic approach, with simple abdominal radiography being the first step in the approximation of intestinal obstruction. The treatment corresponds to a surgical exploration of the abdomen with resolution of the defects found. This is a case report of a newborn who presented congenital duodenal obstruction of both extrinsic etiology (intestinal malrotation and Ladd bands) and intrinsic obstruction (duodenal membranes).
