Abstract
A case is reported in which two separate adenocarcinomas were detected in the bypassed distal stomach 13 years after gastric stapling with loop gastro-enterostomy was performed for the treatment of morbid obesity. Retrograde endoscopy via the afferent loop was used to establish the diagnosis. Although gastritis and metaplasia have been described in the bypassed stomach, only one case of carcinoma in this area has previously been reported.Entities:
