First of all, I would like to congratulate Vilas-Boas on an interesting publication. In this letter the authors write about very interesting topics in the management of patients with malignant gastric outlet obstruction (GOO). GOO developed in up to 20% of patients with advanced hepatopancreatobiliary disease both in benign and malignant form.

As the prevalence of childhood obesity continues to rise, there is an increase in demand for temporary and minimally invasive alternatives to bariatric surgery as solutions for addressing pediatric obesity. Intragastric balloon (IGB) placement is an increasingly popular methodology for addressing adult obesity; however, it is not approved for the pediatric population. We describe the case of a 17-year-old adolescent female who underwent IGB placement in Colombia and failed to receive proper follow-up care in the country of insertion resulting in a gastric outlet obstruction.

Gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) is a clinical condition that can arise from both benign and malignant causes, requiring effective management strategies to ensure optimal patient outcomes. Traditionally, open surgical techniques like gastrojejunostomy (GJ) have been the standard treatment, but recent advances in minimally invasive procedures, such as endoscopic ultrasound-guided gastroenterostomy (EUS-GE), offer alternative approaches with potentially reduced morbidity. This systematic review compared the efficacy, safety, and clinical outcomes of endoscopic versus open surgical techniques in managing GOO.

Article Synopsis
- A 78-year-old male patient presented with persistent vomiting due to a rare case of metastatic urinary bladder cancer, which led to gastric outlet obstruction.
- Despite recent follow-up showing no disease recurrence, tests revealed duodenal stenosis and abnormal mesenteric fat swelling, initially misinterpreted as inflammation.
- A laparoscopic exploration confirmed peritoneal carcinomatosis, ultimately identifying urothelial cancer cells, highlighting the need for clinicians to think about metastatic bladder cancer in similar situations.
Double naso-enteric tubes stenting in afferent limb syndrome with concomitant proximal efferent limb obstruction after loop gastrojejunostomy bypass: a case report.

Endoscopic or fluoroscopic guided naso-enteric placement for stenting and decompression has been used in mechanical enteric limb obstruction after gastrectomy or gastric bypass surgery. However, the use of double naso-enteric tube for treatment of multiple enteric limbs obstruction has not been described to date. We present a 61-year-old female with afferent limb syndrome with concomitant efferent limb obstruction which caused by kinking of anastomosis after loop gastrojejunostomy for benign gastric outlet obstruction.
