[Recurrent pyloric stenosis in a 7-year-old child with chronic granulomatous disease].

Hypertrophic pyloric stenosis is a common affection in infants aged 3-8 weeks and typically does not affect older children. We report a case of pyloric stenosis that occurred recurrently at the ages of 3 and 7 years in a boy with X-linked chronic granulomatous disease. We emphasize the inflammatory origin of such stenosis, whose progression was favorable thanks exclusively to drug treatment with corticosteroids. We note that chronic granulomatous disease can affect the entire digestive tract, similar to inflammatory bowel disease in children.
