“…This complication may be corrected by either gastrojejunostomy or, in some cases, conservative management with gastric decompression by an indwelling feeding tube. 5,6 Our cases show that intrinsic obstruction of the duodenumFatresia or webFcan also occur in patients with giant omphaloceles. Differentiation of intrinsic from extrinsic duodenal obstruction is important so that appropriate treatment can be started early.…”
