Abstract

The incidence of congenital combinations of extrinsic and intrinsic compression of duodenum is uncommon. The authors report a rare case of a neonate with a duodenal stenosis due to the contemporary presence of an annular pancreas and wind sock web. The diagnostic strategies and management will be discussed.
