Successful Treatment of Recurrent Pyloric Stenosis Using Balloon Dilation [PDF]
Infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis is a common surgical disease in infants, with an incidence of 2 to 5 cases per 1000 live births. It often presents with nonbilious projectile vomiting after feeding and a mid‐epigastric mass in infants between the third and eighth weeks of life.

Long‐term efficacy (at and beyond 1 year) of gastric peroral endoscopic myotomy for refractory gastroparesis: A systematic review and meta‐analysis [PDF]
Abstract Introduction Although gastric peroral endoscopic myotomy (G‐POEM) has shown substantial efficacy in patients with medically refractory gastroparesis (GP), comprehensive long‐term data on its effectiveness are lacking. Methods We conducted a systematic review and meta‐analysis including observational studies assessing long‐term efficacy after G‐

Timing of pediatric pyloromyotomy on hospital length of stay [PDF]
Introduction: Pyloromyotomy timing is predicated upon correction of electrolyte abnormalities. Among infants who presented with normal electrolytes, we hypothesized that pyloromyotomy the evening of presentation, rather than waiting until morning, would ...

Nationwide trends of laparoscopic pyloromyotomy in patients with infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis in Germany: A slow path forward [PDF]
Since its introduction, laparoscopic pyloromyotomy (LP), has become increasingly popular in many countries. We have noticed an attenuated trend in Germany. The aim of this study was to analyse the distribution of open and LP in Germany.

Case report: Late-onset hypertrophic pyloric stenosis in a 3-year-old boy: It is never too late [PDF]
Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis (HPS) represents a relatively rare occurrence beyond infancy. Here, we present the case of a barely 3-year-old boy diagnosed with late-onset HPS and successfully treated with extra-mucosal pyloromyotomy.

Role of balloon dilation test in identifying suitable candidates for gastric peroral endoscopic myotomy [PDF]
Abstract Background Predicting successful outcomes of gastric peroral endoscopic myotomy (G‐POEM) is essential for identifying patients who are most likely to benefit from the procedure. This study aimed to evaluate the utility of the balloon dilation test (BDT) in optimizing patient selection for G‐POEM.
