Abstract
A case of Ménétrier's disease in a 3 year old child presenting with subtotal pyloric stenosis and fatal outcome due to postoperative complications is reported. It is emphasized that although radiographic and gastroscopic studies are helpful, a full-thickness mucosal biopsy is essential for the diagnosis of Ménétrièr's disease.Entities:
