title: Pyloric stenosis in a patient with pure esophageal atresia: A difficult diagnosis.
abstract: Hypertrophic pyloric stenosis is brought to attention by its characteristic non-bilious vomiting. In a patient with pure esophageal atresia and a feeding gastrostomy, the symptoms were modified and the diagnosis was delayed. This case report highlights the clinical features of this rare combination, whose diagnosis was easily established once the entity was considered.
