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 ...

An effective pyloromyotomy length in infants undergoing laparoscopic pyloromyotomy
Surgery, 2004Traditional 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.

Myringotomy Knife for Pyloromyotomy
Surgical Laparoscopy, Endoscopy & Percutaneous Techniques, 2010Laparoscopic pyloromyotomy is a common procedure for treating infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. Since 2006, we have been using miniature otolaryngologic instruments for pyloromyotomy due to a shortage of arthroscopic blades in our Medical Center.

Umbilical Incision for Pyloromyotomy
European Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1997The umbilical incision is a new approach for the curative procedure of hypertrophic pyloric stenosis in order to avoid the cosmetic impairment from the right upper quadrant incision. Our purpose was to evaluate the morbidity of the two approaches. One hundred and eighteen children operated on through an umbilical incision (UMB) from 1992 to 1994 were ...

Risk of incomplete pyloromyotomy and mucosal perforation in open and laparoscopic pyloromyotomy
Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2014Despite 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.

Umbilical Pyloromyotomy - An Alternative to Laparoscopy?
European Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 2001To evaluate the utility of umbilical pyloromyotomy for infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (IHPS) compared to published series promoting laparoscopy.Eighty-six babies with IHPS had pyloromyotomy using an umbilical skin fold incision. Operating times, post-operative hospital stay and cosmetic appearance of the umbilical wound were studied.

Pyloromyotomy in a Patient with Paramyotonia Congenita
Anesthesia & Analgesia, 2004A 2-mo-old infant with paramyotonia congenita was scheduled for pyloromyotomy and repair of inguinal hernia. Diagnosis of paramyotonia congenita was done with positive family history, myotonia at eyelids, provocation by cold, and electromyogram analysis.

Laparoscopic pyloromyotomy: a safer technique
Pediatric Surgery International, 1998A modified technique of laparoscopic pyloromyotomy was used to treat infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. Introducing a 5-mm periumbilical port for visualization, two stab wounds are made on either side laterally to directly insert 2.7-mm instruments for manipulation. From the left, the stomach is grasped - not the duodenum!

Christmas disease and pyloromyotomy
Pediatric Anesthesia, 1992SummaryA 4‐week‐old infant developed a life‐threatening haemorrhage following pyloromyotomy. Subsequent investigations revealed unsuspected Christmas disease (Haemophilia B). This case emphasises the importance of considering a diagnosis of haemophilia in a child with unexplained bleeding, even in the absence of a positive family history.

Laser laparoscopic vagotomy and pyloromyotomy
Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, 1991We performed bilateral truncal vagotomy and gastric drainage procedure using standard laparoscopic instruments in five mongrel dogs. The procedure consisted of a transthoracic thoracoscopic bilateral truncal vagotomy and transperitoneal laparoscopic pyloromyotomy. A contact Nd:YAG laser fiber was used.
