[Acute pancreatitis as a distant complication of partial gastrectomy by the Billroth II method].

The paper presents a patient with acute pancreatitis (AP) after partial gastrectomy by means of Billroth mode. AP was caused by the occlusion of the intestinal afferent loop and the secondary pancreatic duct retention. The occlusion resulted from gastrointestinal anastomosis performed arterior to the transverse colon and adhesion.
