Congenital duodenal web (wind-soak variety) in the fourth part of the duodenum causing obstruction in a female child.

2012 
: Delayed presentation of Duodenal Obstruction is a great diagnostic dilemma due to non-specific, varied & wide spectrum presentation. In this study, a 6 years female child presented with recurrent, intermittent, colicky abdominal pain with bilious vomiting, and occasional constipation from 9 months of her age, without having any significant family history or associated condition. She was initially diagnosed as a case of recurrent small bowel obstruction due to atypical variant of malrotation. But, after laparotomy, she was finally diagnosed as a case of recurrent duodenal obstruction due to Congenital Duodenal Web (Wind-Soak Variety) with a central hole in the fourth part of the duodenum. After uneventful recovery of post operative period the patient was discharged at 7th postoperative day & followed up upto 3 months. She had been found alright without any complication.
