Symptomatic bilary obstruction with duodenal nar-rowing requires either surgical or percutaneous biliary drainage procedure. We report a 54-year-old woman suffering from carcinoma of the head of pancreas, who had combined duodenal and bilary obstruction and underwent successful endoscopic ultrasound-guided transduodenal biliary stent placement.

DuodenalPreduodenal portal vein is a rare and interesting entity which often causes duodenal obstruction. It is also associated with other congenital anomalies. We report here three cases of preduodenal portal vein associated with other anomalies causing duodenal obstruction not related to direct compression by portal vein itself.

An internal hernia is a protrusion of bowel through a normal or abnormal orifice in the peritoneum or mesentery. Although they are considered as a rare cause of intestinal obstruction, para-duodenal hernias are the most common type of congenital internal hernias. We report one such case of a left para-duodenal hernia presented as acute intestinal obstruction.

Small intestinal obstruction due to Strongyloides stercoralis is rare and has not been reported in an immunocompetent patient. We describe a 70-year-old immunocompetent man presenting with duodenal obstruction secondary to severe S. stercoralis infestation, as documented on duodenal biopsy. He was treated with ivermectin, with which he recovered remarkably.

Internal hernia is a relatively uncommon condition and rare type of intestinal obstruction. Paraduodenal considered the most common internal hernias. The prevalence variable symptoms make clinical diagnosis paraduodenal diagnostic challenge. We present case acute obstruction by left para-duodenal treatedat general surgery department Mohammed VI University Hospital Center in Marrakech, Morocco i...

Failure of duodenal recanalization results in a spectrum of proximal bowel obstruction from stenosis to atresia. Associations between congenital duodenal obstruction and other congenital anomalies have been well documented although the coincidence of duodenal stenosis and duodenal web is incredibly rare, posing a unique diagnostic challenge. We report a case of a full-term 4-day-old female chil...

conclusions for laterally localized and protruded duodenal diverticula, laparoscopic resection is a feasible and safe method. the role of laparoscopy in surgical treatment of complicated diverticula, located in other parts of the duodenum, is unclear because of lack of experience. case presentation in this article, we present a case report of a large duodenal diverticulum, treated with laparosc...

BACKGROUND: Duodenal atresia is one of the most common malformations intestine in newborns. Both open surgical interventions and laparoscopic method eliminate duodenal obstruction.
 AIM: This study conducts a comparative analysis results treating newborns by these methods.
 MATERIALS AND METHODS: paper summarizes experience 185 operated clinic for obstruction. Two groups patients are ...
