Extramucosal Pyloromyotomy by Laparoscopy [PDF]

open access: possibleEuropean Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1996
Since 1990, we have performed extramucosal pyloromyotomies by laparoscopy in 70 infants presenting with congenital hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. Ever since the first cases, the technique and the instruments have been adapted. The surgical technique and the precautionary measures are here explained again. This technique is beneficial for infants with a

Extramucosal pyloromyotomy by laparoscopy

Surgical Endoscopy, 1991
We performed extramucosal pyloromyotomies by laparoscopy in 20 infants presenting with congenital hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. The surgical technique and precautionary measures, the outcome, and the advantages of this original approach are discussed. In the near future, laparoscopic pyloromyotomy is likely to become a widely used technique.

Surface Umbilical Pyloromyotomy

European Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1998
Despite much initial enthusiasm, umbilical pyloromyotomy has failed to achieve widespread popularity. This mostly relates to difficulty with delivering the pyloric tumour through the relatively small incision.A new technique for umbilical pyloromyotomy is described in which a circumumbilical skin incision with a right lateral extension is combined with

Gas induction for pyloromyotomy

Pediatric Anesthesia, 2015
SummaryBackgroundInfants with pyloric stenosis are considered to be at high risk of aspiration on induction of anesthesia. Traditionally, texts have recommended classic rapid sequence induction (RSI) or awake intubation (AI). AI has generally fallen out of favor, while the components of RSI have become increasingly controversial.
