Fig. 1. — (a) Chest radiograph, performed 1 h after the birth, shows a dilated stomach and the proximal part of the duodenum (white arrows) and only minimal gas distally within the bowels (void arrows). (b) Barium contrast study shows a dilated stomach and the proximal part of the duodenum with slow emptying and some contrast present in the distal parts of the bowel. Both studies are suggestive of a relative obstruction at the level of the duodenum – a duodenal web.
