Pyloric hypertrophy is a benign condition characterized by narrowing of the pyloric canal, which may be associated with other pathologies. It is believed to manifest as a mild form of hypertrophy from childhood into adulthood. Symptoms can be nonspecific, such as nausea, vomiting, oral intolerance, and weight loss. Diagnosis can be challenging for physicians, and accurate reporting of cases is difficult due to some patients remaining asymptomatic.
