Introduction: Hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (HPS) is a frequent pathology in neonates, with extramucosal pyloromyotomy being a healing surgery. It may be performed through a transverse subcostal incision (TSI) or a transumbilical incision (TUI).
Objective: To compare complications, operating times, hospital stay, and esthetic results between both techniques.

Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis (HPS) represents a relatively rare occurrence beyond infancy. Here, we present the case of a barely 3-year-old boy diagnosed with late-onset HPS and successfully treated with extra-mucosal pyloromyotomy. We review the literature, challenging the principle that more aggressive surgical approaches should be preferred over less invasive ones.

Article Synopsis
- A male newborn presented with congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) and kidney failure, linked to a family history of renal issues.
- Diagnostic tests revealed a deletion on the X chromosome affecting the steroid sulfatase gene (STS), which is associated with both kidney abnormalities and infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (IHPS).
- The findings suggest that STS gene deletion can lead to unexpected health issues, expanding the understanding of clinical conditions related to Xp22.31 deletions beyond traditional symptoms.
