Atresia and Stenosis

The GIT can be considered as a simple tube or pipe, anything which blocks the tube (at different levels) can have different effects.

  • Esophageal Atresia
  • Duodenal Atresia and Stenosis
  • Pyloric Stenosis
  • Extrahepatic Biliary Atresia
  • Anorectal Atresia

Duplication of tract

Persistent Vitelline Duct

Meckel's Diverticulum

==Abnormal Gut Rotation

Midgut Volvulus, Situs Inversus


Organ Abnormalities

Extrahepatic Biliary Atresia, Accessory Pancreatic Tissue, Anular Pancreas, Accessory Spleen

Motility Disorders

Hirschprung's disease - abnormalities of neural crest migration.

Abdominal Wall Defects

gastroschisis

Abnormalities and Development

  • How these abnormalities may be generated in development.
  • When they first occur.
  • How can we detect these abnormalites.
  • Do the abnormalites have a direct or indirect effect on the GIT.
  • How serious to the embryo, fetus, newborn, child and adult are these conditions.
  • What therapeutics are available for these conditions.
