Antral web--a rare cause of vomiting in children.
Antral web is a rare cause of gastric-outlet obstruction. We report a case of gastric antral web with intermittent vomiting in a 10-year-old girl who received medical treatment for 6 months. The literature on this anomaly is reviewed with respect to differential diagnosis on the basis of upper gastrointestinal radiographic series, gastroscopy, and treatment planning.
