Biliary Tract Abnormalities as a Cause of Distal Bowel Gas in Neonatal Duodenal Atresia.

Background: The presence of distal bowel gas in an infant does not exclude the diagnosis of duodenal atresia.

Case Presentation: We report a term neonate with Down syndrome. The infant developed vomiting and cyanosis with each feeding soon after birth.

Ventriculomegaly and cerebellar hypoplasia in a neonate with interstitial 11q 24 deletion in Jacobsen syndrome region.

Jacobsen syndrome (JS) is a rare contiguous gene disorder caused by partial deletion of the distal part of the long arm of chromosome 11 ranging in size from 7 to 20 Mb. We report a term male neonate with an interstitial deletion of about 12.3 megabase (Mb) of chromosome 11q24.
