Overview

Infantile pyloric stenosis is typically managed with surgery. Ranstedt's extramuscular pyloromyotomy is the gold standard of treatment.

  • Surgery is the mainstay of treatment for pyloric stenosis.
  • Definitive treatment for infantile pyloric stenosis is with surgical pyloromyotomy[1]. This is a relatively straightforward surgery that can be done through a single larger incision or laparoscopically (through several tiny incisions), depending on the surgeon's experience and preference.
  • Ranstedt's extramuscular pyloromyotomy is the gold standard of treatment[2].
  • After the surgery,once the stomach can empty into the duodenum, feeding can commence.
  • There is occasionally recurrence in the immediate post-operative period, but the condition generally has no long-term impact on the child's future.
