2023年5月22日 · Afferent loop syndrome (ALS) is an uncommon mechanical complication that can occur after various upper gastrointestinal procedures involving anastomosis of the stomach or esophagus to the jejunum.

2022年3月22日 · Afferent loop syndrome is an intermittent partial or complete mechanical obstruction of the afferent limb of a gastrojejunostomy. The syndrome classically refers to obstruction of the upstream limb of a side-to-side gastrojejunostomy but has also been used to refer to the biliopancreatic limb of a Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy.

Afferent loop syndrome occurs when something traps the flow of these juices in the afferent limb. Fluid pressure builds up in the afferent limb and causes discomfort and nausea. If the pressure builds up, the bile and pancreatic fluid may then suddenly empty into the upper stomach.

Afferent loop syndrome is an uncommon side effect of gastric surgery. [1] The afferent loop is made up of a segment of duodenum and/or proximal jejunum located upstream of a double-barrel gastrojejunostomy anastomosis .

Afferent loop syndrome occurs when something traps the flow of these juices in the afferent limb. Fluid pressure builds up in the afferent limb and causes discomfort and nausea. If the pressure builds up, the bile and pancreatic fluid may then suddenly empty into the upper stomach.

Afferent loop syndrome is a rare occurrence caused by obstruction of the afferent, or biliopancreatic, loop of a gastrojejunostomy reconstruction. The syndrome is produced by retention of bile and pancreatic secretions in the afferent loop. Once pressure builds in the afferent limb to allow decompression into the stomach, bilious vomiting ensues.

Afferent loop syndrome occurs when something traps the flow of these juices in the afferent limb. Fluid pressure builds up in the afferent limb and causes discomfort and nausea. If the pressure builds up, the bile and pancreatic fluid may then suddenly empty into the upper stomach.

Afferent loop syndrome (ALS) is a mechanical complication that arises after gastric surgery with gastrojejunostomy reconstruction. This condition was first described in 1950 by Roux, Pedoussaut, and Marchal to post-gastrectomy patients with bilious vomiting.
