    Abstract:
    In the past 10 years 115 patients has revisional gastric surgery at the University of Florida. Twenty-seven patients had jejunal loop interposition to treat the different postgastrectomy disorders. While this procedure may provide relief of symptoms when used to treat several types of post-gastrectomy disorders, its best application is in patients with the severe form of postprandial dumping syndrome. When used in isoperistaltic fashion with an anti-dumping diet, the results are excellent.
