Infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis is the most common surgical cause of vomiting in infancy. After adequate resuscitation, surgical pyloromyotomy is the standard of care for infants with pyloric stenosis. This article provides a brief overview and updates on hypertrophic pyloric stenosis in infants, with a focus on the surgical approach as well as perioperative management of this pathology. The most controversial aspect of the management of infants with pyloric stenosis is post-pyloromyotomy feeding, as there is no clear consensus in the literature on the best regimen. More randomized controlled trials are needed to establish the optimal resuscitation protocol in the preoperative phase and the ideal feeding regimen in the postoperative phase for infants with hypertrophic pyloric stenosis.
