Anesthesia & Analgesia, 2004
A 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, 1998
A 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!

A safe method for pyloromyotomy

The American Journal of Surgery, 1979
Pyloromyotomy often ends up as a pyloroplasty because of accidental lesions on the duodenal mucosa. This can be avoided. If the incision in the serosa is Y-shaped, the fold of mucosa that partly covers the pyloric muscle can be pushed distally and escape being punctured.

Umbilical fold incision for pyloromyotomy

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1990
A 5-year experience with 100 infants undergoing pyloromyotomy was reviewed. Fifty infants who had a standard right upper quadrant incision were compared with 50 infants in whom an umbilical fold incision was used. The groups did not differ significantly with respect to length of operating time, hospital stay, or intraoperative complications.

Christmas disease and pyloromyotomy

Pediatric Anesthesia, 1992
SummaryA 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, 1991
We 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.

The learning curve for laparoscopic pyloromyotomy

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1997
Over a 34-month period, 51 open and 33 laparoscopic pyloromyotomies were performed for infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. The patients' weight ranged from 1.2 to 5.3 kg. The mean operating time was 28 minutes for the open group and 41 minutes for the laparoscopic group. The average time to accept normal feeds was 41 hours in the open group and 32
