The efficacy of Billroth II with Braun (BIIB) anastomosis in laparoscopic distal gastrectomy remains uncertain. We aimed to perform a systematic review and meta‐analysis comparing BIIB with Roux en Y (RY) for distal laparoscopic gastrectomy. ABSTRACT Introduction The efficacy of Billroth II with Braun (BIIB) anastomosis in laparoscopic distal ...

Abstract Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is the most effective treatment for severe obesity. It usually results in spectacular weight loss, associated with improvements of obesity‐associated comorbidities. The mechanisms underlying these benefits are not fully understood but could involve a postoperative activation of the enzyme 5′ AMP‐activated ...

Abstract Gastric abscess is a rare condition caused by gastric barrier damage. It is easily misdiagnosed in clinical practice as a cancer recurrence or submucosal tumor, especially after surgery or endoscopic submucosal dissection. With a relatively high mortality rate, the cause and clinical characteristics of gastric abscesses are obscure.

ABSTRACT Objectives Balloon enteroscopy‐assisted endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (BE‐assisted ERCP) is performed for hepaticojejunostomy anastomotic stricture (HJAS) after biliary‐enteric anastomosis. Although endoscopic balloon dilation (EBD) and plastic stent (PS) placement are commonly performed, they result in high recurrence rates ...

The incidence of the dumping syndrome following gastrojejunostomy with Roux-en-y anastomosis [PDF]
Summary A clinical study was undertaken to determine the incidence of the dumping syndrome following partial gastrectomy and Roux-en-y gastrojejunostomy. Twenty-three patients were scored according to a clinical diagnostic index. There were no dumpers identified. A theoretical explanation for these findings is offered.

Fifteen years of clinical liver transplantation [PDF]
Liver transplantation in humans was first attempted more than 15 yr ago. The 1-yr survival has slowly improved until it has now reached about 50%. In our experience, 46 patients have lived for at least 1 yr, with the longest survival being 9 yr. The high

ABSTRACT Objectives The retroflex position is crucial for the success of pancreato‐biliary cannulation in patients with Roux‐en‐Y gastrectomy (RYG). We aimed to investigate the factors associated with forming the retroflex position in patients with RYG, including short‐type single‐balloon enteroscope (sSBE) and short‐type double‐balloon enteroscope ...
