What is pyloric of stomach?

The pyloric region of the stomach, also known as the pylorus, is the narrow passage that connects the stomach to the small intestine. It plays a crucial role in regulating the movement of partially digested food, known as chyme, from the stomach into the duodenum, the first part of the small intestine. The pyloric sphincter, a muscular valve at the exit of the pylorus, controls this process by opening and closing in response to the digestive needs of the body.
