Incomplete prepyloric mucosal diaphragm (IPMD) is an uncommon congenital anomaly that leads to gastric outlet obstruction in infancy and childhood. This report describes the occurrence of IPMD in six children in a closely knit tribal family from a geographically isolated desert town with a small population in the Sahara. Their records showed similarities of clinical, radiological, operative, and histopathological features. These features, as well as its occurrence in brothers, sisters, and cousins, suggest that this unusual anomaly is transmitted as an autosomal recessive trait.
幽门前黏膜隔膜不完全(IPMD)是一种罕见的先天性异常,可导致婴儿期和儿童期胃出口梗阻。本报告描述了撒哈拉沙漠中一个地理位置偏远、人口稀少的紧密部落家庭中6名儿童发生IPMD的情况。他们的记录显示出临床、放射学、手术和组织病理学特征的相似性。这些特征,以及其在兄弟姐妹和堂兄弟姐妹中的发生情况,表明这种不寻常的异常是以常染色体隐性性状遗传的。
