新生児期の単離性十二指腸狭窄症の症例は、小児科の文献ではほとんど報告されていない。十二指腸閉鎖症や中腸捻転を伴う不整脈などの小腸閉塞の原因は十分に報告されており、急性の臨床症状から診断されている。十二指腸狭窄症は,不完全な腸閉塞であり,臨床症状は様々であり,診断上の課題となっている.我々は先天性十二指腸狭窄症のユニークな症例を持つ新生児を紹介する。新生児は、最初の新生児の訪問の母親のようにwithpoor体重増加と頻繁に"吐く"を提示した。新生児にはまれに濃厚な粉ミルクが与えられていたため、臨床症状は隠蔽されていた。我々は、これは母親が思春期であり、比較的経験の浅い新生児care.while the hospital course, the patient hadrecurrent episodes of emesis with the顕著な電解質異常を伴う嘔吐のエピソードを持っていたという事実に起因する可能性があることを推測する。腹部超音波検査で幽門狭窄症が除外され、最終的に上部消化管(GI)検査で十二指腸狭窄症と診断され、全快して外科的修復を受けた。先天性十二指腸狭窄症は、診断のための疑いの高い指標を持っているとタイムリーな治療を確保するために新生児を必要とする小児科医に非定型的なプレゼンテーションを持っている可能性があります。
Cases of isolated duodenal stenosis in the neonatal period are minimally reported in pediatric literature. Causes of small bowel obstruction such as duodenal atresia or malrotation with midgut volvulus have been well documented and are often diagnosed due to their acute clinical presentation. Duodenal stenosis, however, causes an incomplete intestinal obstruction with a more indolent and varying clinical presentation thus making it a diagnostic challenge. We present a neonate with a unique case of congenital duodenal stenosis. The neonate presented with poor weight gain and frequent "spit-ups" as per the mother at the initial newborn visit. The clinical presentation was masked as the patient was being fed infrequently and with concentrated formula. We postulate that this may be due to the fact that the mother was an adolescent and relatively inexperienced with newborn care. During the hospital course, the patient had recurrent episodes of emesis with notable electrolyte abnormalities including hypochloremia and metabolic alkalosis. Further investigation with an abdominal X-ray showed dilated loops of bowel. Pyloric stenosis was ruled out via abdominal ultrasound. An upper gastrointestinal (GI) series ultimately confirmed a diagnosis of duodenal stenosis and the infant underwent surgical repair with full recovery. Congenital duodenal stenosis may have atypical presentations in neonates requiring pediatricians to have a high index of suspicion for diagnosis and to ensure timely therapy.
