Congenital Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis

چکیده
Szilagyi and McGraw in 1943 aptly pointed out that 'When a disease has ceased to be a therapeutic problem, scientific interest in it is likely to wane. Not infrequently successful measures of treatment are devised before the fundamental problems of a disease have been solved, and in such instances the consequent lack of interest will be reflected in the neglect of the related, less practical but basically important, questions.'

Both congenital and adult types of hypertrophic stenosis of the pylorus are recognized. The congenital variety has an incidence of 5 per 1000 male births and 1 per 1000 female births in the general population of England (Carter, 1967), but it is less frequent in Negroes and in Asiatics (Donovan and Stanley-Brown, 1962; Swan, 1961).
