| A septum of connective tissue separates the circular muscle layers of the pylorus and duodenum. |
| In addition, gastric lavage can actually push the gastric contents beyond the pylorus, which enhances absorption. |
| This illustrates the essential place of the closure of the pylorus by tonic contraction in the prevention of such reflux. |
| It begins at the pylorus, the juncture with the stomach, and ends at the ileocecal valve, the juncture with the colon. |
| If it is exactly in the midline, it may be the duodenal bulb, the pylorus, or the distal antrum. |
| In patients with simple gastroenterostomy, an attempt was first made through pylorus. |
