| | [[Palpation]] of the abdomen may reveal a mass in the [[epigastrium]]. This mass consists of the enlarged pylorus smooth muscle and it is called '''olive'''. Palpation of a hypertrophied pylorus is very useful in diagnosis of hypertrophic pyloric stenosis.[[Peristalsis|Peristaltic]] waves may be palpated or may be seen in abdominal exam of patients with infantile pyloric stenosis. [[Hypothermia]] and [[tachycardia]] with regular pulse and [[tachypnea]] may be present. In skin examination [[cyanosis]], poor skin turgur, [[jaundice]] and [[pallor]] may be present. |

| * [[Palpation]] of the abdomen may reveal a mass in the [[epigastrium]]. This mass, which consists of the enlarged pylorus, is referred to as the 'olive,' and is sometimes evident after the infant is given formula to drink. It is an elusive diagnostic skill requiring much patience and experience. There are often palpable (or even visible) [[peristalsis|peristaltic]] waves due to stomach trying to force its contents past the narrowed pyloric outlet.

| ==Introduction to the Physical Examination Page==
| | Physical examination of neuromuscular system is usually normal. |
| *The page name should be '''"(Disease name) physical examination"''', with only the first letter of the title capitalized.
| |
| *'''Goal:'''To describe in detail the various aspects of the physical examination with attention to how the disease you are describing may present.
| |
| *Remember this section is to describe what characteristics may be found on physical examination, not how to do a physical exam (unless you are including specialized signs, eg Chvostek's sign, in which case you may give a brief description).
| |
| *You may describe a physical exam finding that is commonly present in a disease without adding additional information (e.g. appendicitis physical exam - RLQ abdominal tenderness). In some cases, some unique findings are suggestive of specific aspects / complications of the disease. If present, it is preferable that you mention what these unique findings suggest or when they may be present (e.g. appendicitis physical exam - rebound tenderness may be suggestive of peritonitis).
| |
| *As with all microchapter pages linking to the main page, at the top of the edit box put <nowiki>{{CMG}}</nowiki>, your name template, and the microchapter navigation template you created at the beginning.
| |
| *Remember to create links within Wikidoc by placing <nowiki>[[square brackets]]</nowiki> around key words which you want to link to other pages. Make sure you makes your links as specific as possible. For example if a sentence contained the phrase anterior spinal artery syndrome, the link should be to [[anterior spinal artery syndrome]] not [[anterior]] or [[artery]] or [[syndrome]]. For more information on how to create links click [[Help|here]].
| |
| *Remember to follow the same format and capitalization of letters as outlined in the template below.
| |
| *Below you will see examples of what you may describe as part of the physical examination.
| |
| ==Overview==
| |
| *The overview section should include the disease name in the first sentence.
| |
| *The goal is to summarize the physical examination page in several sentences. This section can be the same as the physical examination segment on the overview page.
| |
| *To see an example of an overview section on a physical examination page, click [[Gastric cancer physical examination|here]].
