Idiopathic Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis (IHPS) has been associated with anomalies (6 to 12.1%) 1,2but has a rareassociation with Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH). The association can be genetic, though it is usually sporadic.We present a case report of a 1 month child with non bilious projectile vomiting with failure to thrive. Radiologicalevaluation showed IHPS with left CDH which was surgically corrected.Presentation of IHPS may be atypical when associated with CDH. Early recognition of concomitant anomalies will reducemorbidity in these patients
