Narrowing of the stomach stomach in children ... symptoms, causes and treatment

‘Stomach gate’ is an unusual condition in young children, which prevents food from entering the small intestine. Normally, a muscle valve works between the stomach and the small intestine to discuss food in the stomach until it is ready for the next phase of digestion, and this valve is called ‘stomach gap valve’. But in the case of a narrowing of the gastro -intestinal gate, the thickness of the gatekeeper increases and inflamed abnormally, so it prevents food from reaching the small intestine. The density of the gatekeeper can lead to vomiting, dehydration and weight loss, and young children with a tight stomach can look hungry all the time. Surgery treats the cash -keeper’s cash. Symptoms of the symptoms of the doors usually appear after birth by three to five weeks. The supervision of the gatekeeper is barely in children older than three months. Its symptoms include: vomiting after breastfeeding. The child can vomit strongly and eliminate breast milk or alternative foods to a distance from a few feet. This condition is known as the shot vomiting. Vomiting can start lightly, but over time it strengthens with the narrowing of the gatekeeper. Vomiting can sometimes contain blood. Permanent hunger. Children with the narrowing of the gatekeeper often want to breastfeed shortly after vomiting. Stomach cramps. You may notice wave -like cramps that appear on the top of the child’s abdomen shortly after breastfeeding, but before vomiting. These cramps are part of the digestive process known as Glow. It was caused by an attempt by the abdominal muscles to push the food through the narrow gatekeeper. Dehydration. The child can cry without tears or contaminated with lethargy. You may find that you are changing a fewer damping diapers, or the diapers are not wet as expected. Changes in overcoming. Since the gatekeeper prevents food from reaching the intestines, children with this condition can be subjected to constipation. Weight problems. This can prevent the supervision of the child from gaining weight, and sometimes it can lead to weight loss. The causes do not know the causes of the gatekeeper, but genetic and environmental factors can play a role in its infection. There is no narrowing of the gatekeeper in the ordinary birth, and its origin is subsequent. Risk factors include the risk of the risk of risking the gatekeeper as follows: Type. The gatekeeper often spreads between the boys, specifically the children (the first childbirth of parents), at a higher rate of girls, sweat and origin. The gate occurs more often among white children and those with Latin origin. Early birth. The tightening of the stomach gate is distributed at an early rate among the two newborns as the newborn after completing the pregnancy period (nine months). Family satisfactory history. Studies have shown a high descent of this deviation among members of some families. The stomach gap is narrowed in a rate of 20% of men and a rate of 10% of women born to mothers. Smoking during pregnancy. This behavior can be increased due to the risk of narrowing the stomach. Use antibiotics early. The risk that the stomach reinforcement of the stomach increases among infants who get, in the first weeks of their lives, such as erythromycin, antibiotics, to treat whooping cough. The risk of tightening the stomach gate between infants born of mothers is also increasing with some antibiotics at a delayed stage of pregnancy. Artificial breastfeeding. Some studies have shown that artificial breastfeeding instead of breastfeeding may increase the risk of tightening the gatekeeper. Most people who participated in these studies used artificial milk instead of breast milk, so it is not clear whether the increased risk is associated with artificial milk or the method of artificial breastfeeding. Treatment requires a treatment for tightening the stomach. The surgeon determines the date of the surgical procedure, known as the process of some gate attitude, often on the day of the diagnosis itself. In the event that the child is dehydrated or if the electrolyte balance is disturbed in his body, fluid (fluid compensation) is given before surgery. In surgery of the gatekeeper, the surgeon makes an opening in the outer layer of the thick stomach muscle, which enables the rise of the inner lining outside. This leads to the opening of a channel that goes through the food to the small intestine. Surgeons are often performed by a few gekeys using a minor incarnation operation, as the surgeon places a thin vision instrument, known as the abdominal endoscope, through a small incision near the child’s navel. Repairing the abdominal endoscope is usually faster than recovery of regular surgery, and this method leaves a smaller scar. After surgery: The child can get a few hours of venous fluid, and the child can be re -fed within 12 to 24 hours. The child may want to get food more often. Some vomiting may take several days. Possible complications include the stomach -silent surgery, bleeding and infection. However, these complications are not common, and the results of the operation are generally excellent. *This content of Mayo Clinic. Also read:
