title: [Laparoscopic palliative gastrointestinal operation in inoperable upper abdominal tumors with gastric outlet obstruction].
abstract: In the period from June 1994 to February 1997, a laparoscopic gastroenterostomy was carried out without intraoperative complications or mortality. In 12 out of 13 patients with gastric outlet obstruction due to inoperable tumor of the upper GI tract (gastric, gallbladder or pancreas carcinoma). From the above, a total of 4 patients had postoperative complications (30.7%), three of which could be treated without further operation. The average duration of the operation was 130 min (range 70-285 mins) followed by an approximal postoperative hospital stay of 17 days (8-41 days).
