Pyloric Stenosis, Abdomen X-ray

X-ray of a 7 day-old child's abdomen who has been suffering from pyloric stenosis; the narrowing (stenosis) of the opening from the stomach to the first part of the small intestine due to enlargement of the pylorus, the muscle surrounding the opening. This causes projectile vomiting and weight loss. The x-ray shows air in stomach but no air more distally beyond stomach.
