Abstract
Patients with pyloric stenosis treated at high-volume hospitals had no clinically significant difference in outcomes despite having higher costs. Although high-volume hospitals offer improved outcomes after complex pediatric surgeries, they may not provide a significant advantage over low-volume hospitals in managing common pediatric procedures, such as pyloromyotomy for congenital HPS.
