Researchers at ULB Zero in on Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis (Recurrent hypertrophic pyloric stenosis in a 7 weeks old boy male: A case report).

Researchers at ULB in Brussels, Belgium have published a case report on recurrent hypertrophic pyloric stenosis in a 7-week-old boy. The report highlights the challenges in diagnosing recurrent pyloric stenosis and distinguishing it from postoperative scarring. The researchers found that ultrasound imaging of the pyloric length can help determine whether a second pyloromyotomy surgery is necessary. This information is valuable for medical professionals treating infants with pyloric stenosis. [Extracted from the article]
