yes it is duodenal atrsia--but it can not be pyloric stenosis --too early for that

it could be volvulus due to malrotation --may be it is little earlier for that

xray will have double bubble sign-vomitus will be bile stained

the fact that ng tube has passed to stomach ndicate that it is not esophegeal atresia

what is the management?
