ABSTRACT
Congenital microgastria is an extremely rare disease in which the anterior bowel stops,
giving way to a small stomach, tubular or sacular in shape, generally associated to megaesophagus.
In this paper we describe the case of a girl with congenital microgastria and we
discuss the embryology, clinical presentation, associated anomalies, imaging methods such
as esophageal and gastroduodenal study and abdominal sonogram, and surgical treatment.
