Abstract
Duodenal necrosis is rare in children and presents a significant surgical challenge. We describe a 12-year-old girl who presented with duodenal necrosis secondary to a closed-loop bowel obstruction. We describe the diagnostic images, operative findings, and a novel reconstruction technique. This case highlights an alternative strategy for reestablishing gastrointestinal and biliopancreatic continuity while avoiding more complex procedures.
