The purpose of this study is to evaluate the applicability of intravenous atropine sulfate therapy in infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (IHPS). From 1998 to 2000 among 35 cases of IHPS, pyloromytomy was performed in 13 (Group A), and intravenous atropine was given as a primary therapy in 22 cases (Group B). In group A, all cases were cured completely. In group B, 13 (59 %) out of 22 cases were successfully treated with atropine, but 9 were failed therapy, and required operation. The recovery period to normal feeding and the hospital stay of the successful atropine group were longer than those of pyloromyotomy, 8.6 days vs. 2.9 days and 13.2 days vs. 4.1 days, respectively. In conclusion, intravenous atropine therapy did not replace pyloromyotomy, but it might be an alternative for the selected patients with contraindications for operation.

Gastric duplication is a rare anomaly which account for only 3.8% of all gastrointestinal duplication. Gastric duplications are usually cystic lesion without communication with lumen. Most frequent presentation is an abdominal mass with vomiting, mainly diagnosed within the first year of life. Surgical removal is necessary in all cases, and optimal timing for surgery is the time that diagnosis is made. However, prenatally diagnosed gastric duplication is getting more common, and determining timing for surgery is not easy due to absent or minimal symptoms just after birth. We experienced prenatally diagnosed gastric duplication in a female newborn baby that gastric duplication was suggested in $24^{th}$ week of gestational age through prenatal ultrasonogram. Surgical removal was done at 3 months after birth, and showed good results. We think that natural history of gastric duplication and prevalent age of surgical disease which is similar to gastric duplication such infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis should be considered when timing of surgery on prenatally gastric duplication is decided.

Infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (HPS) is a relatively common entity. A number of studies for the postoperative feeding schedule has been studied to allow for earlier hospital discharge and improve cost-effectiveness in the treatment of HPS. The purpose of this study was to compare 3 feeding-methods and to evaluate the usefulness of ad lib feeding for HPS. The authors retrospectively reviewed the records of 116 patients who underwent pyloromyotomy for HPS from 1995 to 2004. Three cases were excluded because of the duodenal perforation during pyloromyotomy. Three feeding-methods were defined as: Conventional feeding (>10 hours nothing by mouth and incremental feeding every 2 hours, C), Early feeding(for 4 to 8 hours nothing by mouth and incremental feeding every 2 hours, E), and Ad lib feeding (for 4 hours nothing by mouth and ad lib feeding, A). Time to normal feeing in C, E and A were $51{\pm}24$, $34{\pm}12$ and $24{\pm}6$ hours, respectively. Hospital-stay in C, E and A were $72{\pm}17$, $55{\pm}13$ and $43{\pm}12$ hours, respectively. There were statistically significant differences according to the method of feeding. Frequency of postoperative emesis in C, E and A were 38 %, 47 % and 53 %, but was not significant statistically. Ad lib feeding decreased time to normal feeding and hospital stay, and did not increase postoperative emesis. We conclude that ad lib feeding is recommended for patient with pyloromyotomy in HPS.

Purpose: Hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (HPS) is known to be one of the most common cause of surgery for infants and pyloromyotomy was considered to the standard treatment. There has been an ongoing debate about whether laparoscopic pyloromyotomy (LP) or open pyloromyotomy (OP) is the best option for treating HPS. The aim of this study is to evaluate safety and effectiveness of LP by comparing the clinical results of both surgical strategies performed by single surgeon. Methods: Between January 2000 and December 2013, 60 patients who underwent pyloromyotomy at Asan Medical Center performed by a surgeon were followed: open-supraumbilical incision (n=36) and LP (n=24). The parameters included sex, age and body weight at operation. Clinical outcomes included operation time, time to full feeding, postoperative hospital stay, and postoperative complications. Results: There were no significant differences in characteristics, postoperative hospital stay between the two groups. Time to full feeding was shorter in LP (OP 24.5 hours vs. LP 19.8 hours; p=0.063). In contrast, the mean operation time was longer in LP (OP 37.5 minutes vs. LP 43.5 minutes; p=0.072). Complications such as perforation of mucosal layer (OP 1 vs. LP 0) and wound problems (OP 2 vs. LP 0) were found to be not worse in laparoscopic group as compared with open group. Conclusion: There has no difference both laparoscopic and open-supraumbilical incision in terms of postoperative hospital stay, time to full feeds and frequency of complications.

Purpose: Hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (HPS) is the most common cause of gastric obstruction in newborns. Extra-mucosal pyloromyotomy can be performed through a small laparotomy or laparoscopy. The aim of this study was to compare the two surgical techniques. We also analyzed the incidence of HPS in infants in the last 10 years in relation to the demographic trend of our province. Methods: We analyzed all the cases of HPS treated at our Unit between January 2010 and December 2019. The data were obtained from operating systems. Data about the demographic trends, in particular, the number of births and the population residing in the province of Verona from 2010 to 2019, were also retrieved. Results: During the study period, 60 patients were treated for HPS and met the inclusion criteria. Of these, 56 males and 4 females with an average age of 38±14 days at surgery were included. No differences were found in terms of the duration of surgery, post-operative complications, duration of hospitalization, and weight at the time of surgery. The only statistically significant data was the chlorine level in cases with and without post-operative vomiting (97±3.5 vs. 102±3.3 mmol/L, p<0.05). There was a lower incidence of HPS from 2014 to 2019; however, there was no significant evidence regarding the correlation between this and the reduced birth rate recorded in the province of Verona during the same period. Conclusion: Although laparoscopic pyloromyotomy is a highly complex procedure, it is a feasible alternative to the classic open technique.

10년령의 암컷 요크셔테리어 개가 간헐적인 구토와 만성 채중감소, 다갈증 그리고 쇠약증으로 건국대학교 수의과대학 부속 동물병원에 내원하였다. 방사선 검사에서 가스와 액체가 찬 위 확장이 확인 되었고, 조영제 투여 후 60분이 경과하여도 조영제가 위에서 소장으로 내려가지 않았다. 초음파 상에서는 위체 부위에 상당량의 액체가 저류 되어 있었고, 유문부 점막이 부후되어 있는 것이 확인되었다. 그래서 유문부 협착으로 의한 위 폐쇄가 강력하게 의심되었다. 수술에서 비대된 위점막은 충분히 제거하였고, Heineke-Mikulicz 유문성형술을 적용하였다. 조직학적 소견상 위점막의 비후와 미약한 미만성의 림포구성 형질세포성 위염을 나타내었다. 모든 소견을 종합하여 볼 때, 만성 비후성 유문 위장애로 진단하였다. 간혈적인 구토와 활력저하는 수술 후 9일간 보였다. 이후 환축은 점차적으로 회복되었다. 한달 뒤 환축은 정상적인 식욕과 활력을 나타내었다.
