Mechanical stretching and chemical pyloroplasty to prevent delayed gastric emptying after esophageal cancer resection-a meta-analysis and review of the literature.

Diseases of the esophagus, 2022
BACKGROUND Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) occurs in up to 40% of patients after esophageal resection and prolongs recovery and hospital stay. Surgically pyloroplasty does not effectively prevent DGE.

Effect of Pyloroplasty on Gastric Conduit Emptying and Patients' Quality of Life After Ivor Lewis Esophagectomy

Journal of laparoendoscopic & advanced surgical techniques. Part A, 2020
Background: Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is a common complication after esophagectomy with gastric tube reconstruction. It is still unclear whether a pyloric drainage procedure might reduce the risk of DGE.

Heineke, Mikulicz, Jaboulay, and Finney: Innovators of Surgical Pyloroplasty

The American surgeon, 2020
This historical retrospective explores the history of the gastric pyloroplasty through the lives of the 4 surgeons whose eponymous procedures have defined the operative management of pyloric strictures: Heineke, Mikulicz, Jaboulay, and Finney.

Y-U pyloroplasty

The American Journal of Surgery, 1977
The Y-U pyloroplasty procedure was evaluated in forty-four patients. The technic described requires little dissection and little time, insures a wide pylorus, and has few complications.

Minimally Invasive Pyloroplasty

Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2010
A vagotomized, tubularized gastric conduit is the most commonly used conduit for reconstruction of the thoracic esophagus at esophagectomy. However, the gastric conduit is an imperfect esophageal replacement. The conduit has no receptive relaxation and has a reduced capacity compared with the native stomach.

Endoscopic pyloroplasty for severe gastric outlet obstruction due to alkali ingestion in a child

Gastroenterology and hepatology from bed to bench, 2016
A common belief is that alkali ingestion causes severe esophageal damage and limited gastric injury due to the buffering action of acid. Gastric injury has been observed in patients who ingested alkali.

Esophagogastrectomy without pyloroplasty

Diseases of the Esophagus, 2003
There is no consensus on the need for pyloroplasty after esophagectomy or proximal gastrectomy with an esophagogastrostomy and vagotomy. Arguments for routine pyloroplasty include prevention of postoperative delayed gastric emptying. Arguments against include prevention of postoperative dumping syndrome and bile reflux esophagitis.

Experimental Transperitoneal Laparoscopic Pyloroplasty

Surgical Laparoscopy, Endoscopy & Percutaneous Techniques, 1992
Interest in laparoscopic abdominal surgery continues to grow, which has persuaded a number of centers to pursue actively laparoscopic techniques that will allow surgeons to perform additional operative procedures in a less invasive manner. Peptic ulcer surgery, because of the morbidity associated with gastric surgery as well as the pain and discomfort ...

Dumping Syndrome Following Pyloroplasty

Archives of Surgery, 1966
SOME OF THE curses attending the use of surgery for control of peptic ulcer are the postoperative physiological disturbances produced by the procedure. Following resection, the term "postgastrectomy syndrome" has evolved. This includes all distresses in addition to the dumping syndrome.

Vagotomy-Pyloroplasty

Archives of Surgery, 1968
VAGOTOMY combined with pyloroplasty has been found to be a useful operation in the treatment of chronic duodenal ulcer. The associated mortality and morbidity from this procedure are low. 1 The recurrence rate of ulcers following this procedure has also been reported as being low thus far. 2 L. R.
