Duodenojejunostomia látero-lateral: uma alternativa cirúrgica para o tratamento do "dumping" pós gastrectomia

Most patients with partiaI gastrectomy have no postoperative problems. Some of them, however, develop severe nutritional disturbance, particularly those with Bilroth II reconstruction, which can be treated clinically in the majority of the cases. Those with important mal absorptive problems require surgery. In this article we present a technical alternative for those patients who need reintervention over a BII operation. Our technique has the advantage of not touching the duodenum previously sutured.
