Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and management of congenital hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (CHPS) associated with intestinal malrotation (IM) in infants.Methods The clinical data of 6 cases with CHPS and IM admitted in our hospital from Jan 2003 to Dec 2009 were reviewed,including clinical presentation,symptoms and information of imageology.Results Through barium meal examination and sonography,4 cases were diagnosed CHPS and IM,pyloromyotomy and Ladd's procedure were performed;two cases were diagnosed CHPS,only pyloromyotomy was done,secondary operation was performed for recrudescence of vomiting.All the cases were followed up for 1 to 3 years with good prognosis.Conclusion The etiology of CHPS with IM isn't clear.The diagnosis of IM may be delayed because the symptoms of IM can be masked by that of CHPS.It is helpful for diagnosis of this disease to have barium meal and sonography examination.Good prognosis will be achieved if prompt preoperative diagnosis and operation can be done.
