Keywords:
COLONIC ATRESIA, ULTRASSONOGRAPHY, PRENATALAbstract
Bowel obstruction is the main cause of neonatal surgical emergencies and atresia is the most prevalent representant of it. Colonic atresia on the other hand, is very rare among the others intestinal atresias and its ultrasonographic diagnosis is not frequent, specially due to its unspecific and sometimes non-pathogenic findings. This paper aims to describe a case of colonic atresia diagnosed with ultrasonography during prenatal care.
