Íleo meconial se refere à obstrução do íleo terminal por mecônio espesso; ocorre quase universalmente em neonatos com fibrose cística. Ó íleo meconial é quase sempre uma manifestação precoce da fibrose cística, que leva à produção de secreções gastrointestinais extremamente viscosas e aderentes à mucosa intestinal. Estas secreções são a manifestação de apresentação da fibrose cística em em 10 a 25% dos casos. A obstrução ocorre ao nível do íleo íleo terminal (diferentemente da obstrução colônica causada pela síndrome do tampão de mecônio) e pode ser diagnosticada pela ultrassonografia intestinal. | |||
