Multinodular adult hypertrophic pyloric stenosis.
A case of multinodular hypertrophic pyloric stenosis is described in a 57-year-old woman. Over a 3-month interval, there was progressive enlargement of several mucosal nodules overlying hypertrophied muscularis, and one nodule obstructed the pyloric opening. Diagnosis was made at operation and symptoms resolved after Billroth I gastrectomy.
