  • Title: Laparoscopic pyloroplasty for idiopathic non-hypertrophic pyloric stenosis in a child.
    Author: Ceccanti S, Mele E, Frediani S, Di Nardo G, Roggini M, Cozzi DA.
    Journal: J Pediatr Surg; 2012 Oct; 47(10):1955-8. PubMed ID: 23084216.
    Abstract:
    Acquired gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) during infancy and childhood represents an uncommon event. We describe a 6-year-old boy with GOO who did not respond to medical treatment or to endoscopic pyloric balloon dilatations. The stenosis was successfully treated with laparoscopic pyloroplasty which relieved the obstruction.
