Case report of a 8 month-old North-African infant with liver amebiasis. This disease is not rare in young children and may be observed in all endemic zones of amebiasis. The clinical characteristics, special for the age, and the biological features are reviewed. The diagnosis relies on immunological tests.

The authors report five cases of intrinsic duodenal obstruction in neonates, operated upon since 1976 to 1982. In 3 cases, it's a question of atresia and in two cases of annular pancreas. The associated lesions are in one case, a macrocephaly, in a second case, a microcephaly with ocular lesions and in a third case a jejunal atresia. The operating procedure consists four times in a duodeno-jejunostomy and one time in a duodeno-duodenostomy. A complementary jejunal resection with end-to-end anastomosis is necessary in the case of associated jejunal atresia. A discharge gastrostomy is performed once only. The post operative feeding is exclusively parenteral. A cholostatic jaundice appears in two cases but run its course favourably. The postoperative course is simple. There is no death. The five cases evolue normally at long term.
