Congenital duodenal obstruction repair with and without transanastomotic tube feeding: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Objective: To determine the impact of transanastomotic tube (TAT) feeding in congenital duodenal obstruction (CDO).

Design: Systematic review with meta-analysis.

Patients: Infants with CDO requiring surgical repair.

Congenital duodenal obstruction in the UK: a population-based study.

Objective: Congenital duodenal obstruction (CDO) comprising duodenal atresia or stenosis is a rare congenital anomaly requiring surgical correction in early life. Identification of variation in surgical and postoperative practice in previous studies has been limited by small sample sizes. This study aimed to prospectively estimate the incidence of CDO in the UK, and report current management strategies and short-term outcomes.
