The role of ultrasound in the diagnosis of Infantile Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis (IHPS) can not be over emphasized. The easy availability of this reliable imaging modality may contribute to prompter diagnosis and early treatment. The author wishes to present comparison of two series, of 52 patients each, conducted in the same department, but five years apart. Spread over more than a decade our experience with IHPS patients has undergone dramatic changes, especially the diagnostic part of it. Salient features of the two studies will be highlighted. In addition the study will examine whether the easy access to ultrasound has affected the care of infants with pyloric stenosis.
