[Gastric pneumatosis complicated by a neonatal digestive occlusion]. / Pneumatose gastrique compliquée d'une occlusion digestive néonatale.

Gastric pneumatosis is a rare pathology. Its occurrence in the neonatal period requires looking for ulcerative-necrotizing enterocolitis in a context of prematurity or an underlying surgical obstacle. We report a case of gastric pneumatosis at a newborn child born at term, admitted on the third day of life for neonatal occlusion with a flat stomach. The abdomen without preparation showed substantial gastric distension with aspects of gastric pneumatosis and embellishes with images showing a double gastric bubble. The surgical exploration showed gastric pneumatosis, complete duodenal atresia located at the level of the second duodenal portion, and an annular pancreas. Progression was favorable after duodenostomy.
