Long‐term outcomes of gastric bypass surgery in two Lusitano foals: Contemporary evidence for surgical decision‐making

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Gastric outflow obstruction (GOO) occasionally requires surgical intervention in foals when medical management fails. Current literature lacks consensus on several surgical decisions, with most comprehensive reports dating back over a decade. Critical aspects—including jejunal loop orientation and necessity of jejunojejunostomy—remain debated ...
