Jejunogastric intussusception--a rare cause of recurrent upper gastrointestinal bleeding: case report and review of literature.
Jejunogastric intussusception is a known complication following gastrojejunostomy. However, only occasionally have they presented with haematemesis and we are unaware of any case where it led to recurrent haematemesis. We describe a case where the patient developed recurrent upper gastrointestinal bleeding due to recurrent episodes of jejunogastric intussusception following gastrojejunostomy performed 12 years earlier for duodenal ulcer disease.
