INTRODUCTION Congenital jejunal stenosis and gastric duplication cysts are very rare congenital anomalies of the gastrointestinal tract in the newborn. We present a case of congenital membranous jejunal stenosis associated with gastric duplication cysts, which was diagnosed by ultrasonography. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of ultrasonographic diagnosis of congenital mem...

abstract background: the pancreatojejunostomy has notoriously been known to carry a high rate of operative complications, morbidity and mortality, mainly due to anastomotic leak and ensuing septic complications. objective: in order to decrease anastomotic leak and its attendant morbidity and mortality in operations requiring a pancreato-jejunal anastomosis, and also in order to simplify the ope...

Jejunal diverticulosis is a rare condition seen in 1–2% of the population and asymptomatic 80% its patients. It can however rarely produce life-threatening complications such as perforation, bleeding, obstruction. Diagnosis often delayed patients causing high mortality. We report 79-year-old gentleman presenting with intestinal obstruction for 2 days peritoneal signs. CT revealed jejunal dilata...

Jejunal artery aneurysms are extremely rare; only 58 cases have been reported up to 2022. The high rupture rate necessitates a curative treatment. Only four of true jejunal treated with endovascular embolization were reported. We report case 75-year-old man aneurysm who was successfully embolization. located in the third branch. proximal and distal distance superior mesenteric first bifurcation...

A 74-year-old man suffered from jejunal perforation and adhesion to sigmoid colon due to adenocarcinoma associated with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) arising in a jejunal heterotopic pancreas. The jejunal lesion showed direct extension to the sigmoid colon, which was mistaken as sigmoid colon cancer by surgeons. Malignant transformation is a rare complication of a heterotopic p...

A histological study of peroral jejunal biopsies and resection specimens from patients with malignant histiocytosis of the intestine (MHI) has revealed characteristic lesions consisting of intramucosal histiocytic aggregations which invade surface and crypt epithelium. These lesions are found in 'uninvolved' jejunal mucosa in the presence of obvious tumour elsewhere and also in peroral jejunal ...

Abstract Jejunal adenocarcinoma is a rare type of primary small bowel malignancy. It generally diagnosed at late stages and as surgical finding, with abdominal pain or discomfort being the main associated symptom. Cases presenting perforation are even rarer, especially without disseminated disease. The relationship between cancer coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) still studied, well postsurgi...

background: total and partial gastrectomy is commonly used to treat gastric carcinoma or other benign or malignant conditions of the stomach. laparoscopic-assisted distal gastrectomy is an alternative approach for treating mucosal gastric cancer. many investigators have assessed the safety, efficacy, and feasibility of this procedure.rnobjectives: the aim of present study is to compare the outc...

Twenty one children with dermatitis herpetiformis were studied in an attempt to evaluate the response in the skin, in jejunal morphology, and in jejunal immunoglobulin containing cell counts to gluten elimination and subsequent gluten challenge. In all of the 15 patients whose jejunal biopsy was studied after the eventual gluten challenge the jejunal lesion had returned in 2.4 to 28 months. The...

Intestinal disorders often co-occur with inflammation and dysmotility. However, drugs which simultaneously improve intestinal inflammation and co-occurring dysmotility are rarely reported. Atractylodin, a widely used herbal medicine, is used to treat digestive disorders. The present study was designed to characterize the effects of atractylodin on amelioration of both jejunal inflammation and t...
