| description | Background: This case report is important because of its rarity and because it enriches the scientific community with its detailed operative pictures. Case reports: A newborn male infant had intestinal obstruction due to congenital caecal exstrophy. Limited resection and ileoascending anastomosis are used in surgical repair. The infant had a good outcome. Discussion: This case is distinct from cloacal exstrophy, or it may be considered a subtype of it, because it lacks all of the cloacal exstrophy components except the caecal fissure. Conclusion: Early intervention in newborns with an opened caecum is important for a good outcome. |
