Laparoscopic gastrojejunostomy: a case presentation.
Laparoscopic gastrojejunostomy is demonstrated as an alternative to open gastric bypass procedures. We performed the operative procedure safely and with reasonable anesthesia time, using stapling devices. It is hoped that further patient benefit will be obtained from this laparoscopic procedure in the future.
