  • Title: [The sonographic diagnosis of hypertrophic stenosis of the pylorus].
    Author: Rodríguez RI, Briceño de Rodríguez JA, Urrutia M.
    Journal: Rev Med Panama; 1993 May; 18(2):88-93. PubMed ID: 8327749.
    Abstract:
    The clinical records of 18 children were studied, between 15 and 60 days old. They were hospitalized due to vomiting and diagnosis of suspected pyloric hypertrophic stenosis (PHS). The sonography confirmed the diagnosis in 8 children, by the thickening of the muscular layer and enlargement of the pyloric canal. The surgery (pyloromyotomy) ratified the diagnosis in all 8 children. They all were in good health after being operated.
