  • Title: The natural history of the double pylorus.
    Author: Hegedus V, Poulsen PE, Reichardt J.
    Journal: Radiology; 1978 Jan; 126(1):29-34. PubMed ID: 619430.
    Abstract:
    A study of 11 patients with "double pylorus" revealed that a second channel between the gastric antrum and the duodenal bulb is the result of ulcer penetration. The fistula can be a sign of spontaneous recovery from ulcerative disease; the fistula occurred in conjunction with clinical improvement in the majority of the patients. The advantages of radiological vs. endoscopic diagnostic procedures are discussed.
