Introduction: congenital defects of the digestive tract constitute a wide spectrum of diseases, which include: the development of atresias or stenosis of the intestinal tract, these anatomical characteristics can cause changes throughout infancy and during the neonatal stage. Most of the digestive malformations present are caused by genetic changes or syndromes, their diagnosis is made in the prenatal or neonatal period, mainly in cases with complete occlusion, while those with incomplete occlusion are diagnosed later
Case presentation: a 25 year old second gestation patient with no obstetric history attended her subsequent control at 20 weeks of gestation, presenting as a physical examination finding a fundal height discordant with gestational age by date of last menstrual period, which is why obstetric ultrasound was requested, At 28 weeks due to the onset of labor it was decided to terminate the pregnancy, due to premature product, the patient was admitted to the neonatology ward and after 10 days was operated by means of an open laparotomy, a procedure without complications.
Conclusions: subsequent obstetric follow-up will allow timely diagnosis and treatment to improve the long-term prognosis
