Filter by:We assume that the frequency of gastrojejunostomy ulcers after MGB-OAGB is associated with the peculiarities of the side-to-side gastrojejunostomy (GJS) formation, which is currently the "gold standard" for this procedure. The geometry of such anastomosis leads to the formation of a narrow strip of the gastric wall between two stapler lines (between the suture from the 2nd cassette during the formation of the "small ventricle" and directly from the suture from the cassette during the GJS formation). Perhaps this section of the stomach wall is prone to ischemia, which can certainly increase the risk of ulcer formation. It is also possible that a zone with impaired blood supply may also form in the "blind pocket" above the anastomosis. When forming a Hand-Sewn GJS of the end-to-side type, ischemia zones do not occur. The anastomosis has a more physiological geometry, there is no conflict between the lines of stapled sutures. Thus, we put forward the assumption that a serious risk factor for the development of a GJS ulcer was eliminated when switching to a completely manual technique for the GJS formation when performing MGB-OAGB. The study is aimed at the compare the incidence of GJS ulcers during MGB-OAGB, depending on the techniques of anastomosis formation.
Endoscopy is the best means of finding early stage of upper gastrointestinal diseases, especially early cancer and benign ulcers. Currently, most people still undergo upper gastrointestinal endoscopy due to discomfort, rather than a regular physical examination at a certain age. This study prospectively investigated the reason for undergoing the first upper gastrointestinal endoscopy in patients and found the correlation of endoscopic findings and symptoms.
