title: [Anastomosis prolapse of the gastric mucosa].
abstract: X-rays of 91 patients who underwent gastric surgery between 1973 and 1977 were retrospectively evaluated. We found 16 large mucosal prolapses through the gastroduodenal anastomosis and another six with a so-called anastomosis bulge. Of these patients, 77% presented complaints in relation to delayed gastric emptying. When analyzing the prolapse frequency, patient age at the time of surgery, type of surgery, and suture technique, we found that mucosal prolapse occurred mostly in older patients with an extensive gastric resection after oralis-partialis anastomosis and after employing the two-layered suture technique.
