Abstract

Hypertrophic pyloric stenosis is the main surgical cause of non-bilious vomiting in infants. Ultrasound is the diagnostic imaging method of choice because it can evaluate the pyloric canal morphologically and functionally. Thus, the objective of the present study is to report a case of marked pyloric stenosis with severe difficulty in gastric emptying diagnosed by ultrasound.
