Congenital segmental dilatation of the colon in a newborn: a radiologic perspective of an unusual entity.
Pediatric Radiology 2023 March 9
A newborn with congenital segmental dilatation of the intestine affecting the colon is presented. This rare condition, unrelated to Hirschsprung's disease, may affect any portion of the bowel and is characterized by focal dilatation of a segment of bowel flanked by normal proximal and distal bowel. While reported in the surgical literature, congenital segmental dilatation of the intestine has not been reported in the pediatric radiology literature even though pediatric radiologists may be the first to encounter imaging suggesting the diagnosis. We therefore present the characteristic imaging findings, including abdominal radiographs and images from a contrast enema, and discuss the clinical presentation, pathology findings, associations, treatment, and prognosis of congenital segmental dilatation of the intestine to increase awareness of this unusual diagnosis.
