Z Kinderchir. 1986 Apr;41(2):112-3. doi: 10.1055/s-2008-1043324.

Abstract

We are describing one case of persistent nonbilious post-prandial vomiting in a newborn due to hypertrophic pyloric stenosis, intestinal malrotation and gastric antral diaphragm. Those three anomalies were successively diagnosed as causes of persistent upper gastrointestinal subobstruction.
