  • Title: Duodenojejunostomy in gastric operations for postbulbar duodenal ulcer.
    Author: Chung RS, DenBesten L.
    Journal: Arch Surg; 1976 Sep; 111(9):955-7. PubMed ID: 949256.
    Abstract:
    In two cases, two different techniques of duodenojejunostomy were employed as an alternative to an insecure closure of the "difficult duodenal stump." The arrangements are either duodenojejunostomy Roux-en-Y or isoperistaltic jejunal interposition. A single-layered suture line is employed. The ampulla of Vater is visualized during the construction of these anastomoses. In addition to obviating a tenuous stump closure, this technique has the theoretical advantage of providing internal drainage.
