title: [Retrograde jejuno-jejunal intussusception. A rare complication following total gastric resection].
abstract: Jejunogastric intussusception is an infrequent complication following simple gastrojejunostomy or Billroth II anastomosis. Jejunojejunal intussusception through enteroenteric anastomosis following total gastrectomy, however, was reported in 2 cases. Here we present a case of a 59-year-old male patient with gastric ulcer who received a total gastrectomy with loop esophagojejunostomy and Braun's anastomosis 10 years previously, then developed retrograde jejunojejunal intussusception through Braun's anastomosis. The patient presented after a day of acute attacks of left upper quadrant pain with bilious vomiting. In-time, an operation was performed with successful results. This complication of retrograde jejunojejunal intussusception has never been reported. Clinical history, diagnosis, and treatment are discussed.
