Duodenal web presents usually during the neonatal period with frank features of upper intestinal obstruction. Duodenal webs are rare congenital anomalies that are among the causes of duodenal obstructions. However, on rare occasions, duodenal web might present during late infancy or early childhood in an unusual pattern. The association of duodenal web with malrotation is also unusual. We are presenting here a case of duodenal web in fourth part with malrotation in a 14-month-old male child. The baby had been experiencing intermittent episodes of subacute intestinal obstruction for the past 8 months.
