Biliary Atresia (BA) affects approximately 1:20,000 babies and is the most frequent cause of surgical jaundice in children. BA presents in the first few weeks of life with pale stools and dark urine in otherwise healthy infants. It is the end result of a destructive inflammatory process of the bile ducts, with unclear origins.

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1998
A 4-day-old black male underwent laparotomy for intestinal obstruction. At surgery, multiple jejunal atresias (type IV) of the jejunum were detected. As an incidental finding, atresia of the appendix was also present. The jejunal atresia was repaired, and resection of the tip of the cecal pole and atretic appendix was performed.

Oesophageal atresia (EA) is a congenital abnormality of the oesophagus that is caused by incomplete embryonic compartmentalization of the foregut. EA commonly occurs with a tracheo-oesophageal fistula (TEF). Associated birth defects or anomalies, such as VACTERL association, trisomy 18 or 21 and CHARGE syndrome, occur in the majority of patients born ...

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 1997
Biliary atresia, a progressive obliterative process involving the bile ducts, has its onset in the newborn period. It is characterized by worsening cholestasis, hepatic fibrosis, and cirrhosis, which lead to portal hypertension and a decline in hepatic synthetic function. Untreated, the outcome is uniformly fatal.

Biliary atresia is a rare disease of infancy, which has changed within 30 years from being fatal to being a disorder for which effective palliative surgery or curative liver transplantation, or both, are available. Good outcomes for infants depend on early referral and timely Kasai portoenterostomy, and thus a high index of suspicion is needed for ...
