___________ border of the stomach grows faster than its
_________ _________.
dorsal

As the stomach enlarges
and acquires its adult
shape, it slowly rotates
90 
degrees in a clockwise 
direction around its 
longitudinal axis
90
degrees in a clockwise
direction around its
longitudinal axis
The effects of rotation on the stomach are
The ventral border (lesser curvature) moves to the right and the dorsal border (greater curvature) moves to the left

endoderm
source: BRS, page 101, 3rd edi
The lamina propria; muscularis mucosae; submucosa; the outer longitudinal, middle circular, and inner oblique layers of smooth muscle of the muscularis externa; and the serosa of the definitive stomach are derived from visceral =
mesoderm
Congenital Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis aka
Gastric outlet obstruction

occurs when the muscularis externa in the pyloric region hypertrophies, causing a narrow pyloric lumen that obstructs food passage.
In Pyloric Stenosis- ________ _______

muscularis externa
Vomiting usually starts around __
weeks of age
3

The infant is hungry after vomiting and wants to feed again
Congenital Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis S/S
Abdominal pain
Belching ( the release of gas from the GIT through the mouth).
Constant hunger
Dehydration , UO ▼
Failure to gain weight or weight loss
Wave-like motion of the abdomen shortly after feeding and just before vomiting occurs
Exams and Tests
The condition is usually diagnosed before the baby is 6 months old.
The infant may have a swollen belly
O/E: abnormal pylorus, which feels like an olive-shaped mass, when touching the stomach area.
ultrasound of the abdomen may be the first imaging test performed.
