Use of Ultrasound Measurements to Direct Laparoscopic Pyloromyotomy in Infants

BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic pyloromyotomy is associated with an increased risk of incomplete myotomy compared with open myotomy. We hypothesized that utilizing ultrasound measured length to direct laparoscopic pyloromyotomy would reduce the risk of incomplete pyloromyotomy without a concomitant increas...
