Overview
Natural History
Complications
- Vomiting after surgery -- this is very common and generally improves with time
- Failure to gain weight in the newborn period
- Risks associated with any surgery, which include:
Prognosis
- Surgery usually provides complete relief of symptoms. The infant can usually tolerate small, frequent feedings several hours after surgery.
- As many as 80% of patients continue to regurgitate after surgery
- Patients who continue to vomit 5 days after surgery may warrant further radiologic investigation.
