Gastric outlet obstruction is a mechanical obstruction to the flow of gastric contents to the intestines. The most common causes of malignant gastric outlet obstruction (MGOO) are pancreatic and gastric cancers. MGOO is associated with reduced quality of life and poor prognosis due to malnourishment from the inability to tolerate oral intake. Surgical gastrojejunostomy and endoscopic placement of enteral stents are palliative options with different advantages and disadvantages. We present a case of MGOO treated with endoscopic ultrasound-guided gastroenterostomy, a minimally invasive alternative to palliative surgical bypass.
胃出口梗阻是胃内容物向肠道流动的机械性梗阻。恶性胃出口梗阻(MGOO)最常见的原因是胰腺癌和胃癌。由于无法耐受经口摄入导致营养不良,MGOO与生活质量下降和预后不良相关。外科胃空肠吻合术和内镜下放置肠内支架是具有不同优缺点的姑息治疗选择。我们报告一例采用内镜超声引导下胃肠造口术治疗的MGOO病例,这是一种微创的姑息性手术旁路替代方法。
