The correction of the dumping syndrome is based on three surgical techniques: narrowing of the gastrojejunal for gastroduodenal) anastomosis, interposition of an intestinal loop between the gastric stump and the duodenum, or conversion of Billroth II to Billroth I. The authors report the results obtained in a series of 22 cases.

Function Preserving Gastrectomy and Quality of Life.

Advances in gastric cancer screening have enabled earlier detection, shifting the focus of treatment toward preserving patients' quality of life (QoL). Function-preserving gastrectomy (FPG), including pylorus-preserving gastrectomy, proximal gastrectomy, and sentinel node navigation surgery, represents a paradigm shift in the surgical management of early gastric cancer. These techniques aim to balance oncological safety with the preservation of gastric function, mitigating postgastrectomy syndromes such as dumping syndrome, bile reflux, and nutritional deficiencies.

Background: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass may present long-term complications that require revisional surgery or even reversal to normal anatomy. Data on the indications, surgical technique, and outcomes of RYGB reversal remain scarce.
Methods: We identified 48 cases of RYGB reversals with complete 90-day follow-up within a multi-centric international retrospective database of elective secondary bariatric surgery.

Wieacker-Wolff syndrome (WRWF) is an X-linked genetic disorder characterized by neuromusculoskeletal abnormalities caused by loss-of-function variants of the gene. Here, we report the case of a male infant with WRWF manifesting as multiple joint contractures and congenital anomalies at birth. He underwent gastrostomy to treat the gastroesophageal reflux disease, which caused mixed apnea and transient bradycardia.

Department of Visceral Surgery, Clarunis, University Digestive Health Care Center Basel, St. Clara Hospital and University Hospital Basel, Basel, Switzerland.
Background: Anastomotic ulcers (AU) at the gastroenterostomy are a common postoperative complication after laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB). Possible risk factors for ulcer formation include active smoking, the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, increased tension or ischemia at the anastomosis, or factors that increase the acid secretion of the gastric pouch. Therefore, a longer gastric pouch may increase risk of AU formation after LRYGB.

Severe hypoglycemia (SH) is a significant risk, particularly in the elderly, and adrenal insufficiency (AI) may be a contributing factor. This study examines six cases of late dumping syndrome (LDS)-induced reactive hypoglycemia (RH), with AI as a potential trigger. Three of the six patients were diagnosed with AI, and one experienced a hypoglycemic coma.
