Study on 175 patients underwent Roux-en-Y hepatico-jejunostomy on the Y ansa with subcutaneous intestinal extremities because of intrahepatic and extrahepatic stones. There was no postoperative death. Short-term outcomes were good in 64.57%, moderate in 27.2%, and poor in 8.00%. Long-term outcomes were good in 71.95%, moderate in 20.12%, and poor in 7.92%. Treatment for main stone by drain lavage was good in 25.22%, moderate in 28.00% and bad in 45.94%. Treatment for residual stone under image intensifier through intestinal head was good in 31.13%, moderate in 68.17% and bad in 0%. These findings showed that this technique is good in treating postoperative residual and recurrent stones

Gastritis cystica polyposa (GCP) is a rare lesion characterized by hyperplastic and cystic dilatation of the gastric mucous glands infiltrating into the underlying submucosa. A cumulative experience suggests that GCP represents a manifestation of a spectrum of reactive inflammatory responses to mucosal injury. The case reported herein is a GCP developed as multiple polypoid lesions with a circular arrangement in the gastric mucosae along the gastrojejunostomy site.

The radiologic findings of prolapsed gastric mucosa through gastrojejunostomy stoma after gastrectomy is very characteristic, but recurrent gastric cancer, retrograde jejunogastric intussusception, and Hofmeister defect should be differentiated from it because of their simillar postoperative upper gastrointestinal series findings.The author reports 3 cases of prolapsed gastric mucosa through gastrojejunostomy stoma after Hofmeister's gastrectomy with brief review of the literature.

Pancreatic cancer has been identified as one of the most common malignant causes of upper gastrointestinal obstruction. Most common sites of obstruction include the pyloric region and second and third portions of the duodenum. If surgical gastrojejunostomy is not a viable option, metallic stent placement may be performed either by transoral or transgastric approach. Transgastric technique is considered to be more invasive and is often employed only in failed attempts to insert a stent using transoral technique. This report presents a 70-year-old patient with pancreatic cancer involving the proximal jejunum. Although this is a rarely described location for stenting, the patient was successfully treated using transgastric technique.

Enteroenteric anastomotic strictures of UGI tract are common and require treatment if significant obstruction occurs. We performed fluoroscopic guided balloon dilatation in 6 patients who had symptomatic stricture of gastrojejunostomy. The stricture was successfully resolved in 4 patients with benign stricture. But 2 patients with malignant stricture had recurrence of obstructive symptom 2 weeks later, and they required a stent. Asymptomatic balloon rupture was seen in one patient, but other procedural complications did not occur. We found that fluoroscopic guided balloon dilatation is an effective and safe method in the treatment of anastomotic stricture of gastrojejunostomy. We also found transient effect in malignant gastrojejunal anastomotic strictures, which required an interventional procedure, such as placement of a stent.

Heterotopic pancreas is an aberrant pancreatic tissue that lacks anatomic and vascular continuity with the main pancreas. Although heterotopic pancreas is a relatively rare entity and usually noted as an incidentel findings at autopsy and during surgery for other causes, it is capable of producing symptoms depending on the site and size of lesions as well as various pathological changes occuring in the pancreas itself. We have recently experienced a case of heterotopic pancreas on the mid-body of posterior wall along the lesser curvatrue of stomach in a 30-year-old man, who visited our hospital for the evaluation of postprandial epigastric discomfort and indigestion for two months. Gastrofiberoscopy revealed a 3x4 cm sized submucosal mass, and subtotal gastrectomy gastrojejunostomy was performed and he was discharged without any postoative complication.
