Abstract
- Small bowel obstruction is suspected when distension of bowel loops are seen on prenatal sonography. However, ileal atresia could show atypical feature that is absent of bowel dilatation. We present a case of ileal atresia that appeared as a single cyst-like dilatation of small bowel on late third trimester prenatal sonography.
