Gastric antrum hypertrophy causing outlet obstruction in an infant with congenital diaphragmatic hernia

J Pediatr Surg. 2011 Jun;46(6):e11-4. doi: 10.1016/j.jpedsurg.2011.02.062.

Abstract

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is associated with multiple congenital anomalies affecting several organ systems, including the gastrointestinal system. Pyloric stenosis and bands are known and previously reported etiologies of gastric outlet obstruction in infants with CDH. We report the first case of gastric antrum hypertrophy causing gastric outlet obstruction in an infant with CDH.
