Abstract:
Neonatal vomiting is a nonspecific symptom with a broad range of possible causes, including systemic illness, metabolic disturbances, and gastrointestinal obstruction. One important surgical condition is hypertrophic pyloric stenosis, which usually manifests within the first few months of life with persistent, forceful vomiting and metabolic imbalance. This report describes a rare case of the condition occurring in a three-day-old neonate, underscoring the importance of timely diagnosis and early surgical management to avoid complications.
