Retrograde Jejunogastric Intussusceptio: A case Report
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 7
Abstract
Jejunogastric intussusception (JGI) is a rare, very serious complication of gastrojejunostomy or Billroth – II reconstruction. Since gastrojejunostomy with vagotomy are on a declining trend, it is extremely rare to come across such a complication. Only about 250 cases have been reported in literature to date. The condition is not difficult to diagnose, if an endoscopy is performed by someone familiar with this complication. The condition can be acute and life threatening or chronic and disabling. We report such a case with review of literature.
