Management of intestinal atresia complicating gastroschisis.
Journal of Pediatric Surgery 1989 June
In a personal series of 22 patients referred with gastroschisis, five (23%) had intestinal atresia. The records of these patients seen over the past 12 years have been studied in order to elucidate the correct management of their complex problems. The indications for primary anastomosis or stoma formation probably depend upon the degree of damage and dilatation of the preatretic intestine at its initial presentation. In patients with a high jejunal or proximal ileal atresia, primary anastomosis should be attempted, but if the dilatation is severe, intestinal decompression may be required. In patients with distal ileal or colonic atresias, the establishment of a stoma and secondary closure is the treatment of choice.
