Zusammenfassung
Eine Obstruktion der zuführenden Schlinge nach Billroth-II-Resektion ist eine äußerst seltene Spätkomplikation dieser Operation. Wir berichten von einer 76-jährigen Patientin, die 11 Jahre nach einer Billroth-II-Resektion mit akuter Pankreatitis und Verschlussikterus zur stationären Aufnahme kam.
Die Sonographie des Oberbauchs ergab den Verdacht einer Dilatation der zuführenden Schlinge, dies konnte kernspintomographisch bestätigt werden. Ein tumoröser Prozess als Ursache des Verschlussikterus war nicht nachweisbar.
Intraoperativ zeigteN sich ein Dünndarmvolvulus und einschnürende Adhäsionen nahe der Braun-Anastomose, wodurch die Obstruktion der zuführenden Schlinge ausgelöst war. Nach Reposition der intestinalen Schlingen und Lösung der Adhäsionen wurde die Patientin rasch beschwerdefrei, auch der Ikterus bildete sich komplett zurück.
Abstract
An obstruction of the afferent loop after Billroth-II-resection is an extremely rare late complication of this procedure. We report on a 76-year-old female patient with a history of Billroth-II-resection 11 years ago who was admitted due to acute pancreatitis and obstructive jaundice.
Abdominal sonography lead to the suspicion of a dilated afferent loop, which could be proven by means of magnetic resonance imaging. A tumorous lesion as cause of the obstructive jaundice was not detectable.
Intraoperatively a volvulus of the small intestine and strangling adhesions near the Braun’s anastomosis were seen, causing the obstruction of the afferent loop. Following reposition of the small intestine and adhesiolysis the patient gained a quick relief of symptoms and the jaundice disappeared completely.
