A technique for assessing pyloric reflux.
نویسنده
چکیده
In an earlier communication (Flint and Grech, 1970) it was confirmed that the pylorus is normally competent but incompetent in gastric ulcer and chronic alcoholic gastritis and often incompetent in chronic duodenal ulcer. The relationship between pyloric regurgitation and gastric ulcer was also discussed. The purpose of this paper is to give details of the technique used for assessing pyloric regurgitation and to discuss the radiology of this test.

متن کاملValue of ultrasound in differentiating causes of persistent vomiting in infants
A prospective study of abdominal ultrasound was undertaken in 100 consecutive infants who presented with a history of persistent vomiting aged 5 to 90 days. Each infant had a 'test feed' followed by an ultrasonographic scan of the pylorus at the cotside. On test feeding a palpable tumour was evident in 38 infants. On real time ultrasound using the criteria for diagnosing pyloric stenosis, these...

Pyloric reflux is rare in healthy subjects but is common in those with benign gastric ulcer. Healing of a gastric ulcer is associated with a diminution of reflux, and occasionally the pylorus becomes fully competent.
متن کاملPyloric incompetence in chronic non-specific lung disease.
Of 19 patients with chronic non-specific lung disease, chosen without reference to dyspeptic symptoms, 17 (89%) exhibited duodenogastric reflux of barium indicating pyloric incompetence. In the one patient who proved to have a gastric ulcer the amount of reflux diminished when the ulcer healed. The degree of pyloric incompetence was not found to be related to the severity of arterial blood gas ...
متن کاملRecent results of treatment of infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis.
During the five year period December 1980 to November 1985, 106 infants with hypertrophic pyloric stenosis were treated. There were no operative deaths, but two late deaths occurred from associated abnormalities. The combination of preoperative rehydration, skilled anaesthesia, and the use of the Fredet-Ramstedt operation (pyloromyotomy) have virtually eliminated mortality from uncomplicated in...
