INTRODUCTIONPyloric stenosis, or infantile hypertrophic pyloric
stenosis (IHPS) is a condition characterised by hypertrophy of the two muscle layers of the
pylorus. • The pyloric canal lengthens, the whole pylorus
thickens, and the mucosa becomes oedematous causing functional obstruction of the gastric outlet.

Epidemiology
• The incidence of IHPS is approximately 2 to 5 per 1,000 births per year in most white populations.
• The male-to-female ratio is approximately 4:1.• Male and female children of affected fathers
carry a risk of 5% and 2% respectively, of developing IHPS.
• The incidence is 2.4 per 1000 live births in whites, 1.8 in Hispanics, 0.7 in blacks, and 0.6 in Asians. It is also less common amongst children of mixed race parents.

Clinical Presentation
SymptomsVomiting is the first symptom in most children• may occur after every feeding or only after some
feedings• Usually starts around 3 weeks of age, but may start
any time between 1 week and 5 months of age• Forceful (projectile vomiting)• The infant is hungry after vomiting and wants to
feed again
![Page 8: Infantilehypertrophicpyloric 140228082212-phpapp01](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070302/548e6e51b4795968148b4617/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Other symptoms generally appear several weeks after birth and may include:
• Dehydration gets worse with the severity of the vomiting .Prolonged vomiting leads to the loss of large quantities of gastric secretions rich in H+ and Cl- .
• As a result of dehydration, the kidney attempts to conserve Na+ to maintain volume, by exchanging them for K+ and H+ .
![Page 9: Infantilehypertrophicpyloric 140228082212-phpapp01](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070302/548e6e51b4795968148b4617/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• Starvation can exacerbate diminished hepaticglucoronyl transferase activity, and indirecthyperbilirubinemia may be seen in 1-2% ofaffected infants.• Failure to gain weight or weight loss .• Wave-like motion of the abdomen shortly after
feeding and just before vomiting occurs• The peristaltic waves can be seen across abdomen
passing from right to left and reverse immediately prior to vomiting

Etiology
It has been found that,in IHPS specimens, the muscle layer is deficient in:
– The quantity of nerve terminals–Markers for nerve-supporting cells– Peptide-containing nerve fibers• It is postulated that this abnormal innervation ofthe muscular layer leads to failure of relaxation ofthe pyloric muscle, increased synthesis of growthfactors, and subsequent hypertrophy, hyperplasia, and
obstruction.

• There is an increased incidence of IHPS in infants receiving erythromycin. The reason is unclear, although a prokinetic effect on gastric muscle contraction is postulated.

Diagnosis• Initially suggested by the typical clinical presentation.
In physical examination : The mass is firm, mobile, approximately 2 cm, best palpated from the left, located in the midepigasrtrium beneath the liver edge.
• Palpation of the hard muscle mass or olive is
diagnostic in conjunction with a typical history.• Diagnosis by palpation of olive only successful
49% of cases in recent years vs. 78% 30 years
ago.• Palpation requires a calm infant with relaxed
abdominal musculature, which is difficult in these
hungry babies.

• Ultrasonography is used to measure the thickness of the pyloric wall and the length of the pyloric canal.
– normal wall thickness <2mm, IHPS >4 mm– normal length of the pyloric canal <10 mm,IHPS >14 mm• Sensitivity and specificity as high as 100%

Differential Diagnosis
• Gastroesophageal reflux, with or without hiatal
hernia. Differentiated by radiologic studies. Also
amount of vomitus is smaller, and the infant does
not usually lose weight.• Adrenal insufficiency. Differentiated by absence of
metabolic acidosis, hyperkalemia, and elevated
urinary sodium.• Viral gastroenteritis. Unusual in infants less than 6
weeks of age. Associated with significant diarrhea
and sick contacts.
![Page 15: Infantilehypertrophicpyloric 140228082212-phpapp01](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070302/548e6e51b4795968148b4617/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
TreatmentThe preoperative treatment is directed toward
correcting the fluid, acid-base, and electrolyte
losses.• Intravenous fluid therapy is begun with 0.45–0.9%
saline, in 5–10% dextrose, with the addition of
potassium chloride in concentrations of 30–
50mEq/L.• Fluid therapy should be continued until the infant
is rehydrated and the serum bicarbonate
concentration is less than 30mEq/dL, which
implies that the alkalosis has been corrected.• Most infants can be rehydrated within 24 hours

SURGICAL MANAGEMENT
• Once resuscitated the infant can undergo theFredet-Ramstedt pylormyotomy, which is theprocedure of choice.• It consist of incision in to the sphincter muscle
of pylorus.• NG tube is passed and gastric content are
aspirated just prior to surgery.
