Meconium ileus (MI) is one of the most common causes of intestinal obstruction in the newborn accounting for 9–33% of neonatal intestinal obstructions. It is the earliest clinical manifestation of cystic fibrosis (CF), occurring in approximately 16% of patients with CF. However, MI has been reported in the absence of CF.
