Pyloromyotomy is a surgical procedure in which a portion of the muscle fibers of the pyloric muscle are cut. This is typically done in cases where the contents from the stomach are inappropriately stopped by the pyloric muscle, causing the stomach contents to build up in the stomach and unable to be appropriately digested. The procedure is typically performed in cases of "hypertrophic pyloric stenosis" in young children.[1] In most cases, the procedure can be performed with either an open approach or a laparoscopic approach[2] and the patients typically have good outcomes with minimal complications.[3]
