Overview
Common causes of adult-onset hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (HPS) include persisting duodenal hyperacidity, inheritance of a parietal cell mass (PCM) at the upper end of the normal range which causes persisting duodenal hyperacidity.
Causes
Various causes of pyloric stenosis include:[1]
Causes of adult-onset hypertrophic pyloric stenosis
- Persisting duodenal hyperacidity
- Inheritance of a parietal cell mass (PCM) at the upper end of the normal range which causes persisting duodenal hyperacidity.
Causes of infantile pyloric stenosis
Diseases such as gastroenteritis, urinary tract infections, pyelonephritis, adrenal insufficiency, acute renal failure, and inborn errors of metabolism are the most common causes of infantile pyloric stenosis.
