1. “The muscle below the stomach is too tight, causing the baby to vomit forcefully.”
2. “There is a blind upper pouch and an opening from the esophagus into the airway.”
3. “The lower bowel is lacking certain nerves to allow normal function.”
4. “A part of the bowel is on the outside without anything covering it.”
