Feedback
A Incorrect. The infant with hypertrophic pyloric stenosis will not eventually experience spontaneous recovery in 75 of cases. Treatment for pyloric stenosis is a surgical procedure called a pyloromyotomy.
B Incorrect. The infant with hypertrophic pyloric stenosis is hungry and wants to be fed again, in spite of feeding and vomiting.
C Correct. The infant with hypertrophic pyloric stenosis will eventually have projectile vomitus propelled up to several feet.
D Incorrect. Because food does not pass through the pylorus, bowel movements are small.
