Congenital gastrointestinal (GI) disorders are structural problems of the digestive tract that a baby is born with — ranging from a blocked or absent section of bowel, to organs forming outside the abdominal wall, to missing nerve cells in the large intestine. They vary enormously in severity: some, like pyloric stenosis, are resolved with a single short operation and children go on to live fully normal lives; others, like biliary atresia or complex anorectal malformations, require staged surgeries and years of specialist follow-up. Treatment is almost always surgical for structural defects, though careful medical and nutritional support before, during, and after surgery is equally central to a good outcome. India has well-established paediatric surgical centres with experienced neonatal and paediatric surgeons who manage the full spectrum of these conditions, from straightforward pyloromyotomy to complex pull-through procedures and the Kasai operation for biliary atresia.
