    A 16-year-old girl with abdominal pain had extreme megaduodenum and nonrotation. Surgical correction of congenital adhesions and duodenal stenosis restored intestinal continuity, resolving symptoms.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric surgery
    • Gastroenterology
    • Congenital anomalies

    Background:

    • Megaduodenum is a rare congenital condition characterized by abnormal dilation of the duodenum.
    • Nonrotation of the small intestine can coexist with duodenal anomalies, complicating presentation.

    Observation:

    • A 16-year-old female presented with non-specific upper abdominal complaints.
    • Gastrointestinal imaging revealed extreme megaduodenum with intestinal nonrotation.

    Findings:

    • Intraoperative findings identified congenital adhesions causing stenosis at the duodenojejunal junction.
    • Surgical intervention involved adhesiolysis, resection of the stenosis, and duodenal narrowing with end-to-side duodenojejunostomy.

    Implications:
