Overview

The most potent risk factors in the development of infantile pyloric stenosis are male gender, Caucasian race, bottle feeding, caesarean section delivery, first-born infant, preterm birth, and exposure to macrolides, nitrofurantoin, penicillins and trimethoprim-sulphamethoxazole during pregnancy.
