[Comparative scintigraphic functional study of 3 different reconstruction technics following total gastrectomy].
Esophago-jejunal reconstruction, after total gastrectomy, is best performed by one of the following three operations: interposed jejunal loop, Roux-en-Y loop and "omega" loop with Braun anastomosis. To assess the effects of the three mentioned techniques three groups of 15 patients each were examined after total gastrectomy for I, II or III stage cancer. Four to ten months after surgery all patients underwent the following tests: a) esophago-jejunal transit with labeled solid meal; b) cholangio-scintigraphy and c) absorption test of biliary acids. A group of 10 patients, without gastrointestinal pathology, was selected for comparison. The data obtained from the comparative study, in agreement with the opinions held by many Authors and our previous research, demonstrate that the interposition of jejunal loop (Mouchet) is the reconstructive technique closest to the unoperated stomach and, for this reason, is to be preferred after total gastrectomy.
