Jejunal atresia is a rare birth defect in which the small intestine is blocked or absent. It occurs when the small intestine does not form properly during fetal development. Symptoms of jejunal atresia include vomiting, abdominal distention, and failure to pass meconium (the first stool of a newborn). Treatment typically involves surgery to remove the blockage and reconnect the intestine.

The symptoms of jejunal atresia vary depending on the type and severity of the condition. Common symptoms include:

-Vomiting
-Abdominal distention
-Failure to pass meconium (first stool)
-Lethargy
-Poor feeding
-Dehydration
-Jaundice
-Blood in the stool
-Abdominal pain

Jejunal atresia is a rare congenital disorder in which the small intestine is abnormally narrow or blocked. The exact cause of jejunal atresia is unknown, but it is believed to be caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Possible causes include genetic mutations, maternal diabetes, and exposure to certain medications or toxins during pregnancy.

The treatment for jejunal atresia depends on the type and severity of the condition. Generally, the treatment involves surgery to remove the blockage and reconnect the intestine. In some cases, a portion of the intestine may need to be removed. Other treatments may include antibiotics to prevent infection, intravenous fluids to replace lost fluids, and nutritional support. In some cases, a feeding tube may be necessary to provide nutrition.

Jejunal atresia is a congenital condition that requires surgical intervention to correct. There is no cure for jejunal atresia, but medications may be prescribed to help manage symptoms and reduce the risk of complications. These medications may include antibiotics to prevent infection, antacids to reduce stomach acid, and laxatives to help with digestion. In some cases, nutritional supplements may also be recommended.
