Congenital pyloric atresia--a report of two cases. 1979

K Kume, and K Ikeda, and S Suita, and Y Hayashida, and T Arima

Two cases of the membranous type of pyloric atresia are described and a review of 99 cases reported in the literature is presented. Excision and incision of diaphragm with pyloroplasty was performed on both cases. The first patient was alive following the second operation of gastroduodenostomy for postoperative stenosis. The second premature patient died of sepsis on the 58th postoperative day. The treatment should be surgical and the operative procedure should be chosen depending on the type of atresia. Excision or incision of the diaphragm with pyloroplasty and gastroduodenostomy are the procedures of choice. Gastrojejunostomy should be avoided because of its high mortality rate.
