Pyloric Atresia

Pyloric atresia (PA) is a very rare condition. Its incidence is approximately 1 in 100,000 newborns and constitutes about 1% of all intestinal atresias.

Type 1 pyloric atresia

• pyloric membrane was connected to a second duodenal membrane through a virtual duodenal lumen in a premature newborn.
• Girl born by emergency cesarean section for abruptio placentae at 34 weeks' gestation and weighted 2130 grams.
• Day 3 - pre-operative abdominal X-Ray (left) and contrast study with barium meal (right).
• a first membrane was found at the pylorus and a second one was found 2 cm forward, with a virtual duodenal lumen between them.
