[Late complications after surgery for high congenital intestinal obstruction in children].

The work analyses the experience in examination and treatment of 31 patients with late-term complications after operations for various types of acute and chronic high congenital ileus. Five groups of children were set apart according to the character and anatomical cause of the complication. The characteristics of late-term complications, their clinical manifestations, and methods of repeated surgical interventions are given. The most difficult for treatment were complications which had developed after creation during the primary operation of gastroentero-anastomoses for an annular pancreas (5 patients) and membranous atresia of the duodenum (one patient). It is concluded that the performance of this operation is not advisable.
