Neonatal jejunal polyp with jejunojejunal intussusception causing atresia: A novel cause

AbstractNeonatal intestinal obstruction is an acute emergency with varied etiology. Neonatal jejunal polyp leading to intussusception and obstruction is extremely rare. We report a male newborn, diagnosed antenatally with intestinal obstruction. He also presented with abdominal distension. On exploration there was type III jejunal atresia with a 4 cm long segment of jejunojejunal intussusception with a polyp being the lead point. Resection anastomosis was done. Histopathology report was suggestive of an inflammatory polyp
