Abstract:
N/AA case of retrograde intussusception of efferent limb into Braun side-to-side jejunojenunal anastomosis after gastric surgery is presented. Intussusception is an uncommon and well-recognized complication after gastric surgery. A 60-year old female was admitted to Hanyang University Hospital with a chief complaint of epigastric pain and hematemesis of 6 hours duration. Patient had a history of distal gastrectomy with gastrojejunostomy due to early gastric cancer(Stage I) 3 years ago. Emergency abdominal CT revealed jejunojejunal intussusception into Braun anastomosis. Exploration and segmental resection of jejunum with end-to-end reanastomosis were performed.
