Abstract
SummaryJejunogastric intussusception (JGI) is a rare but life‐threatening complication of gastrectomy. It is a complication of previous surgery on the stomach, such as Billroth II gastrectomy, Roux‐en‐Y anastomosis, and gastrojejunostomy. Early diagnosis is important but difficult in acute JGI. Emergency surgical intervention is necessary in most cases and can prevent clinical deterioration. We report such a case that presented with hematemesis.Copyright © 2017, The Gastroenterological Society of Taiwan, The Digestive Endoscopy Society of Taiwan and Taiwan Association for the Study of the Liver.
