Jejunal atresia is a well-known congenital malformation attributed to in utero ischemic events. Heterotopic gastric mucosa (HGM), or gastric tissue present in a location other than the stomach, is a much rarer congenital anomaly and is generally found in the esophagus or within a Meckel's diverticulum. Identifying both within the same pathologic specimen is truly rare. This report outlines a case of jejunal atresia wherein HGM was identified within postoperative pathology evaluation of the specimen. An early episode of restenosis at the anastomosis prompted operative re-exploration, in which additional HGM was found within the specimen.
空肠闭锁是一种众所周知的先天性畸形,归因于子宫内缺血事件。异位胃黏膜(HGM),即存在于胃以外部位的胃组织,是一种更为罕见的先天性异常,通常见于食管或梅克尔憩室内。在同一病理标本中同时发现这两种情况确实罕见。本报告概述了一例空肠闭锁病例,其中在标本的术后病理评估中发现了HGM。吻合口早期再狭窄促使再次手术探查,术中在标本中发现了更多的HGM。
