[Pyloromyotomy of congenital pyloric stenosis : Modified Tan-Bianchi procedure.]
The aim was to find a simple and safe surgical technique for pyloromyotomy in infancy. An indication exists in typical clinical symptoms with wave-like vomiting and sonographically confirmed pyloric stenosis. Existing movements in the acid-base-household should be balanced beforehand otherwise there is an increased risk in anesthesia. The operation represents a combination of gasless laparoscopy and open pyloromyotomy according to Tan-Bianchi. Postoperative food intake should be initiated as soon as possible.
