The use of a transverse incision in the bowel proximal to the obstruction anastomosed to a longitudinal incision in the distal bowel, results in the classically described diamond-shaped anastomosis that tends to hold the anastomosis open. Treatment will depend on the intraoperative assessment of the entire bowel for multiple atresias versus a single ...
