AI Article Synopsis

  • The study investigates the role of genetic factors in infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis and its associated rare diseases.
  • It involves a retrospective analysis of neonates from 2000 to 2022 who underwent surgery for this condition and had additional health complications.
  • The findings indicate that 9.8% of these patients had a rare disease, emphasizing the need for early diagnosis and treatment to improve health outcomes.

Article Abstract

Aim:   Although infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis is a multifactorial disease caused by genetic and environmental factors, the role of genetic factors has become more important recently. With this study, we aimed to present rare diseases accompanying infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis caused by genetic factors.

Patients And Methods:   This is a retrospective study. Babies who were operated on with the diagnosis of infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis in the neonatal intensive care unit between 2000 and 2022 and had additional diseases were included in the study.

Results:   9.8% of patients diagnosed with infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis had an accompanying rare disease.

Conclusion:   Early diagnosis and treatment of rare diseases associated with infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis are of great importance in reducing morbidity/mortality due to these diseases.
