Management and Outcomes of Jejunoileal Atresia Within the United Kingdom

Jejunoileal atresia (JIA) is seen in 0.7 per 10,000 births and requires early surgical intervention to restore gastrointestinal continuity. Many intra-operative techniques exist to manage the atresia depending on anatomy encountered and proximal bowel dilatation. Existing studies are predominantly single centre experiences. This study aims to report contemporary management and outcomes of JIA in the United Kingdom (UK) and explore how operative technique is associated with outcome.
