[Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy: indications, technique, results].
61 gastrojejunostomies were constructed between 1981-1999 in 58 cases (43 cases were operated between 1991-1999). 30 cases have previously suffered various gastric operations; in 28 cases the Roux-en-Y was the first gastric operation (27 operated on between 1991-1999). Radiologic and endobioptic studies were routine for diagnostic and follow-up evaluation, but various scintigraphic studies were performed in selected cases. The surgical technique was tailored for each case, according to the preoperative strategy. The indications for surgery were the following: 19-reflux disease; 14-severe peptic disease (9-reccurence, 3-postbulbar lesion, 2-juxtacardial ulcer); 8-peptic disease associated to reflux disease; 8-gastric cancer; 8-various early or late complications after gastrectomy; 1-lymphocytic gastritis. There were 4 early reoperations and 3 deceased. In 3 cases late reintervention was mandatory (for Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, peptic ulcer secondary to gastrectomy for cancer, Roux-stasis syndrome) and the Roux pattern was preserved; in 2 cases the antireflux effect of the operation was lost after the reoperation.
