Hypertrophic pyloric stenosis associated with hiatal hernia.
From 1988 to 1994 the authors treated three patients with hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (HPS) who presented with hiatal hernia (HH). Two of the cases had been diagnosed preoperatively. HPS should be considered in HH cases in which a significant delay of gastric output is suspected in the early neonatal period.
