  • Title: Retrograde intussusception as a complication of Roux-en-Y anastomosis.
    Author: Gerst PH, Iyer S, Murthy RM, Albu E.
    Journal: Surgery; 1991 Nov; 110(5):917-9. PubMed ID: 1948664.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of a serious complication of a Roux-en-Y reconstruction in which an antiperistaltic jejunojejunal intussusception created a strangulating intestinal obstruction. It is suggested that this complication may be an extreme form of the so-called Roux-en-Y stasis syndrome.
