The use of modern ultrasonography has allowed many infants with duodenal obstruction to be identified prenatally. In a large cohort study of 18 different congenital malformation registries from 11 European countries, 52% of infants with duodenal obstruction were identified in utero.5 Duodenal obstruction is characterized by a double-bubble sign on prenatal ultrasonography. The first bubble corresponds to the stomach and the second to the postpyloric and prestenotic dilated duodenal loop. Prenatal diagnosis allows the mother the opportunity to receive prenatal counseling and to consider delivery at or near a tertiary care facility that is able to care for infants with GI anomalies. 5,6 Presenting symptoms and signs are the result of high intestinal obstruction. Duodenal atresia is typically characterized by onset of vomiting within hours of birth. While vomitus is most often bilious, it may be nonbilious because 15% of defects occur proximal to the ampulla of Vater. Occasionally, infants with duodenal stenosis escape detection of an abnormality and proceed into childhood or, rarely, into adulthood before a partial obstruction is noted. Nevertheless, one should assume any child with bilious vomiting has a proximal GI obstruction until proven otherwise, and further workup should be begun expeditiously.

Once delivered, an infant with duodenal atresia typically has a scaphoid abdomen. One may occasionally note epigastric fullness from dilation of the stomach and proximal duodenum. Passing meconium within the first 24 hours of life is not usually altered. Dehydration, weight loss, and electrolyte imbalance soon follow unless fluid and electrolyte losses are adequately replaced. If intravenous (IV) hydration is not begun, a hypokalemic/hypochloremic metabolic alkalosis with paradoxical aciduria develops, as with other high GI obstruction. An orogastric (OG) tube in an infant with suspected duodenal obstruction typically yields a significant amount of bile-stained fluid.
Duodenal atresia is a disease of newborn infants. Cases of duodenal stenosis or perforated duodenal web (diaphragm) rarely remain undiagnosed until childhood or adulthood; these cases represent the exception rather than the rule. Duodenal atresia appears to be equally distributed between infants of both sexes, with no reported predilection for one race.

[10:28:28 PM] dr_gauravsuneja: An ectopic testis has deviated from the normal path of descent after it has emerged through the external inguinal ring.
* in the superficial inguinal pouch which lies anterior to the external oblique aponeurosis * in the perineum
The ectopic testis cannot be pushed down into the scrotum. Unlike an incompletely descended testis, the ectopic one is usually well developed and histologically normal.
Treatment is by orchidopexy. [10:28:45 PM] dr_gauravsuneja: The undescended testis lies along the correct path of descent but outside the scrotum. It may be abdominal, inguinal or retractile.

* 20% in premature boys (100% in male neonates of 32 weeks gestation) * 2% in boys born at full term boys * 1% at l year
There is little evidence that testes descend spontaneously after the first year.
The right testis is affected alone in 50% of cases and the left alone in 30%. The condition is bilateral in 20%.
Absence of testicular tissue suggests intrauterine torsion or true testicular agenesis. If the latter is suspected, than an abdominal ultrasound should be performed to check for renal agenesis. [10:29:55 PM] dr_gauravsuneja: Complications include:
* infertility in bilateral undescent; no more common in unilateral cases * associated indirect inguinal or interstitial hernia * increased risk of malignancy, particularly seminomas in the late second or third decade
