Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
Corrosive poisoning is a common thing in children .But isolated gastric outlet obstruction after one month of asymptomatic ingestion of some unknown liquid is a rare phenomenon and rarely reported. We report a case in which isolated gastric outlet obstruction is seen after one month of drinking some liquid from a battery. At the time of poisoning she was asymptomatic, but subsequently she had intractable vomiting with abnormal bowel movements.UGI endoscopy confirmed diagnosis of acquired pyloric stenosis. Early surgical management showed a satisfactory recovery.
