Abstract：
:Various options are available for the surgical treatment of meconium ileus (MI). This paper examines the use of resection and primary anastomosis as the favoured option for the treatment of complicated meconium ileus. This was a retrospective study. All patients (13 children) with MI treated with primary resection and anastomosis (RA) in the 10-year period (1996-2005) at St Mary's Hospital in Manchester were identified. The case notes were retrieved. The gestational age, type of surgery, length of bowel resection and complications were recorded. Out of 13 (3 males, 10 females), 7 had severely dilated bowels, 5 had perforation and 1 had volvulus. Mean length of bowel resection was 33.8 cm (range 20-50 cm). Overall survival in this group was 85%. Seven patients (54%) developed complications. Four (31%) had surgical complications: two anastomotic strictures with adhesions, one adhesive intestinal obstruction and one intra-abdominal drain retraction. Primary resection and anastomosis is a safe option in the treatment of complicated meconium ileus. It has the advantage of less hospital stay and avoids a secondary laparotomy for closure of the stoma.
