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
The causes of infantile pyloric stenosis are unknown, but genetic and environmental factors might play a role in pathogenesis of infantile pyloric stenosis.[2]
