The bulbous bowel segment: a sign of congenital small bowel obstruction
Radiology.
1980 May.
Abstract
A study of 29 neonates with intestinal obstruction has shown that a massively dilated, bulbous terminal segment of bowel is characteristic of neonatal infestinal obstruction of congenital origin. The sign is an important diagnostic indicator but its absence does not exclude intestinal atresia.
