SummaryIn 10 pigs with clinical signs of "baby pig disease" and in 9 baby pigs found dead without previously recognized signs of disease there was found irreversible ganglion cell degeneration in the pyloric part of the stomach, identical with that found in infants with congenital pyloric stenosis...
The meaning of PYLORIC is of or relating to the pylorus; also : of, relating to, or situated in or near the posterior part of the stomach.
sometimes difficult to catch the movement of contrast agents through the pyloric canal because of the contrast echoes produced by the liquid as well as pyloric canal were not strong, which cannot reflect the pyloric stenosis objectively and may be misleading clinically. Using color Doppler artifacts,...

A 3-week-old baby boy initially presented with a typical history and physical examination for hypertrophic pyloric stenosis that was confirmed by ultrasound. His initial recovery was uneventful and he was discharged home tolerating full feeds without emesis. However, he returned with progressively ...
The progressive fixed fasting hypergastrinaemia within the first few weeks of life will, in the baby who inherits acid secretion at the top of the normal range, produce hyperacidity of sufficient severity to trigger the process of acid-induced work hypertrophy of the pylorus. The potential ...
Similarly, neither the fasting blood glucose nor the fasting gastric pH of the babies with pyloric stenosis differed significantly from the values obtained in normal babies. Our findings do not support the hypothesis that gastrin in the fasting baby has an aetiological role in the development of ...
