Although the complications of familial isolated CPA are minor, delays in diagnosis can increase the chances of morbidity.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Case presentation<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Three female infants born to a Japanese mother presented with CPA at birth. There was no consanguinity between the parents, and the spacing between pregnancies was 2\u00a0years in each case. All 3 siblings had a prenatal diagnosis of CPA owing to polyhydramnios and a dilated stomach, without dilatation of the rest of the gastrointestinal tract. All patients underwent reconstructive surgeries for establishing bowel continuity (Case 1, pyloromyotomy; Case 2, gastroduodenostomy in a diamond fashion; and Case 3, gastroduodenostomy in a side-to-side fashion) soon after birth. Their postoperative courses were uneventful, and they grew up healthily, without any complications.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Fetal ultrasonography is useful for diagnosing CPA prenatally.
