Intestinal obstructions are the most common surgical emergencies encountered in newborn infants, requiring early and accurate diagnosis. The importance of proper history including timing of passage of meconium, vomiting, if present, with its characteristics, and clinical examinations including a full abdominal and complete perineal examination are of paramount importance. With early intervention, morbidity and mortality of cases of intestinal obstruction is low. The outcome is in part dependent upon congenital comorbidities and delays in diagnosis and management.
