Electrohydraulic lithotripsy is commonly used for endoscopic fragmenta- tion of biliary and pancreatic duct stones. A 64-year-old man who had undergone subtotal gastrectomy and gastrojejunostomy presented with acute, severe abdominal pain for a duration of 2 hours. Initially, he was diagnosed with acute pancreatitis because of an elevated amy- lase level and pain, but was finally diagnosed with acute afferent loop syndrome when an impacted enterolith was identified by comput- ed tomography. We successfully removed the enterolith using direct electrohydraulic lithotripsy conducted using a transparent cap-fitted endoscope without complications. We found that this procedure was therapeutically beneficial.

  • Subtotal Gastrectomy, Antrectomy, Billroth II and Roux-En-Y
    Subtotal Gastrectomy, Antrectomy, Billroth II and Roux-en-Y Reconstruction and Local Excision in Complicated Gastric Ulcers Joachim Ruh, Enrique Moreno Gonzalez, Christoph Busch Subtotal Gastrectomy Introduction In subtotal gastrectomy, 75% of the stomach is resected. The passage is reconstructed using the proximal jejunum either as an omega loop or as a Roux-en-Y reconstruction. Indications and Contraindications Indications ■ Gastric carcinoma of the intestinal type in the distal part of the stomach ■ Complicated ulcers of the distal part of the stomach and the duodenum Preoperative Investigations/Preparation for the Procedure ■ In gastric carcinoma, the carcinoma should be clearly identified as an intestinal type in histopathological work-up. ■ The location of the carcinoma/ulcerative lesion should be clearly identified by means of endoscopy. 144 SECTION 2 Esophagus, Stomach and Duodenum Procedure STEP 1 Abdominal incision and mobilization of the stomach For laparotomy, a transverse epigastric incision should be chosen. In case of inadequate exposure, this incision should be extended with a midline incision. This approach provides adequate exposure up to the gastroesophageal junction. Alternatively, a midline laparotomy is adequate. Following the exploration of the whole abdomen for metastatic disease in case of gastric cancer, the gastric lesion should be located. The greater omentum of the stomach is dissected from the transverse colon, exposing the posterior wall of the stomach and opening the lesser sac (A). A Subtotal Gastrectomy, Antrectomy, Billroth II and Roux-en-Y Reconstruction and Local Excision in Complicated Gastric Ulcers 145 STEP 1 (continued) Abdominal incision and mobilization of the stomach The pylorus is freed from adjacent connective tissue (B), and the omentum minus is opened along the minor curvature.

A seven-year-old, female, domestic short hair cat was presented with a history of chronic anorexia. Radiographic examination revealed a large space-occupying calcified mass in the abdominal cavity. The mass was located in pylorus and did not extend into the duodenum and surrounding tissues. Billroth I gastroduodenostomy was conducted to remove the mass. Histopathological examination of the mass showed a lymphoma. Although Recovery following the operation was excellent, the patient showed intermittent vomiting unrelated to feeding. Radiographical examination revealed a megaesophagus, which was assumed to be a complication of the Billroth I procedure, since the condition was not observed before the procedure.
