Congenital intrinsic duodenal atresia [CIDA] is one of the rare intestinal anomalies occurring in 1 in every 5000 - 10000 live births.1 Among the various types, type III is an uncommon CIDA as compared with types I and II.2 About two thirds of all congenital duodenal obstructions are intrinsic, characterized by onset of bilious vomiting occurring within 24 hrs. after birth.3 Associated anomalies are frequently seen in nearly 50% of CIDA patients.4 In this case report we describe a patient with CIDA Type 3 without any associated congenital anomalies.
