An effective pyloromyotomy length in infants undergoing laparoscopic pyloromyotomy

Surgery, 2004
Traditional management of pyloric stenosis has consisted of open pyloromyotomy during which the surgeon is able to palpate and determine whether the hypertrophied pylorus has been completely divided. During the last decade, laparoscopic pyloromyotomy has become an increasingly popular approach for this condition.

Laparoscopic pyloromyotomy, the tail of the learning curve

Surgical Endoscopy, 2013
The debate whether laparoscopic pyloromyotomy (LP) is superior to open pyloromyotomy (OP) remains actual. A recent review showed no benefit between the LP or OP, but in the studied randomized, controlled trials the learning curve was not addressed. Comparing LP including the learning curve with OP after the learning curve is questionable.

Is laparoscopic pyloromyotomy superior to open surgery?

Surgical Endoscopy, 1998
We set out to determine whether laparoscopic pyloromyotomy (LPM) is superior to open pyloromyotomy (OPM) in babies with hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (HPS).We performed a retrospective study of 36 LPM and 36 OPM. Both groups were comparable in terms of sex, age and weight on admission, and blood pH on admission and prior to surgery.

Laparoscopic pyloromyotomy

Seminars in Pediatric Surgery, 1998
Extramucosal pyloromyotomy is a method with predictable morbidity and outcome for the cure of infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. The method created by Ramstedt is successfully performed using a laparoscopic approach. Preliminary reports, including 266 cases treated by laparoscopic pyloromyotomy (LP), suggest that morbidity is comparable to that ...

Risk of incomplete pyloromyotomy and mucosal perforation in open and laparoscopic pyloromyotomy

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2014
Despite randomized controlled trials and meta-analyses, it remains unclear whether laparoscopic pyloromyotomy (LP) carries a higher risk of incomplete pyloromyotomy and mucosal perforation compared with open pyloromyotomy (OP).Multicenter study of all pyloromyotomies (May 2007-December 2010) at nine high-volume institutions.

I11 Laparoscopic pyloromyotomy

2013
Laparoscopic pyloromyotomy is an uncomplicated operation but it requires meticulous attention to detail. Only 3 hand instruments are required for this operation.

Laparoscopic Extramucosal Pyloromyotomy

1999
Laparoscopic extramucosal pyloromytomy is an excellent alternative to the classical management of hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. In May 1990 we performed the first laparoscopic pyloromyotomy (Alain, Grousseau 1991a,b). A careful follow-up of our patients demonstrates the advantages of this approach.

A New Technique for Laparoscopic Pyloromyotomy

Pediatric Endosurgery & Innovative Techniques, 1998
ABSTRACT We recently performed laparoscopic pyloromyotomy on five patients with infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. In the first case, the pylorus was incised using a Babcock intestinal clamp according to the procedure of laparoscopic pyloric traumamyoplasty reported by Castanon et al.

Laparoscopic Pyloromyotomy: A Study of the Learning Curve

European Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2017
Introduction Laparoscopic pyloromyotomy (LPM) is a minimally invasive surgical technique used in pyloric stenosis treatment. This technique is safe, effective, and does not show more complications than laparotomy. Nevertheless, this technique requires an acquisition period to be optimally applied.

The Learning Curve Associated with Laparoscopic Pyloromyotomy

Journal of Laparoendoscopic & Advanced Surgical Techniques, 2005
Laparoscopic pyloromyotomy (LPM) for the treatment of infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (HPS) has gained popularity in recent years. This study examines the learning curve associated with LPM.We performed a retrospective analysis of patients undergoing LPM at a children's hospital between January 1, 1997 and June 30, 2003.
