Retrograde intussusception is exceedingly rare and has not been reported after a pancreaticojejunostomy. Recurrent retrograde intussusception has been reported only once before. In adults retrograde intussusception has been associated with gastric resection, gastrojejunostomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, and gastrostomy tube placement. We report a case of retrograde intussusception of the efferent limb into the anastomosis of a revised Roux-en-Y bypass of the pancreas. Two long side-to-side anastomoses with plication were performed to prevent a third episode of intussusception involving this patient's Roux-en-Y.

Article Synopsis
  • Adult colonic intussusceptions are uncommon and often related to organic lead points, but the exact causes and mechanisms remain unclear.
  • A case study of a 74-year-old woman showed retrograde colonic intussusception linked to previous colonoscopies, despite no identifiable lead point found during examination.
  • This finding is significant as it is the first reported case of colonoscopy-related retrograde intussusception without visible abnormalities, suggesting new avenues for understanding how this condition can occur.

Jejunojejunal intussusception is a rare yet severe complication of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) surgery. We are presenting a unique case of retrograde jejunal intussusception with a closed-loop blockage and an associated abdominal herniation that occurred two years after a laparoscopic RYGBP. The patient presented with abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting, prompting a clinical diagnosis and a biphasic contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan, which later revealed a complicated jejunal intussusception with signs of ischemia showing decreased wall enhancement and distal collapsed jejunal walls with complete closed-loop bowel obstruction.

Bariatric surgery, although effective in treating obesity-related comorbidities, rarely results in intussusception, which is a severe complication. This study aimed to enhance clinical practice and establish early diagnosis by elucidating risk factors and management strategies associated with intussusception. We conducted this systematic review following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis 2020 criteria.

To evaluate the clinical outcomes of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) in the treatment of Stanford type B aortic dissection (TBAD) in Marfan syndrome patients who had no history of aortic arch replacement. This is a retrospective case-series study. From January 2009 to December 2019,the clinical data of Marfan syndrome patients who underwent TEVAR for TBAD at the Department of Vascular Surgery were collected.
