Abstract
The unusual problem of multiple intestinal atresias associated with jejunal atresia has been reviewed and seven cases have been summarized. Maintaining maximal bowel length without jeopardizing the patient is of utmost importance. The shish kebob technique has been illustrated in a patient with 15 obstructions. The other cases include one patient with the apple peel deformity and two with atresias associated with gastroschisis. Although these children are small in general, they are bright and otherwise healthy. The 90 percent mortality reported previously has been reversed by a combination of techniques and lessons learned from the leaders in pediatric surgery.
