Retrograde Ileo-Jejuno-Gastric Intussusception With Early Bowel Ischemia: Life Threatening Complication After Gastrojejunostomy
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 12
Abstract
Jejuno-gastric intussusception is a highly uncommon condition occurring as a rare complication of gastrojejunostomy ~ less than 300 cases have been reported of this entity since it was first reported in 1914 by Bozzi. Here we report a case of a 57 year old male who came with complaints for bilious vomiting and vague abdominal pain whose ultrasound and CT findings showed intussusception of the proximal ileal loop into the efferent jejunal loop which in-turn prolapsed into the stomach. The patient had undergone a gastro-jejunostomy 18 years ago for a peptic ulcer, further details about past history were not known.
