Antenatal ultrasound findings from a fetus that was ultimately diagnosed with pyloric stenosis in the mid neonatal period: a case report

Abstract

İnfantil hipertrofik pilor stenozu infantlarda kusmanın en sık cerrahi nedenidir. Pilor kası hipertrofiye olur, pilor kanalı darla- şır ve gastrik çıkış obstrüksiyonuna neden olarak uzar. Burada orta neonatal dönemde pilor stenozu tanısı almış olan bir fe- tusdaki antenatal ultrasonografi bulguları sunulmuştur.

Infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis is the most common surgical cause of vomiting in infants. The py- loric muscle is hypertrophied and the pyloric channel becomes narrow and elongated, causing gastric outlet obstruction. This is a case report of antenatal ultrasound findings from a fetus that was ultimately diagnosed with pyloric stenosis in the mid neonatal period.
