Enteroenteroanastomosis

Enteroenteroanastomosis is a surgical operation in which the two ends of the small intestine are connected to each other by anastomosis. This procedure may be necessary if part of the small intestine is removed, such as because of cancer or an ulcer.

Enteroenteroanastomosis can be performed either openly or laparoscopically. With the open method, the surgeon makes an incision in the abdominal cavity and connects the ends of the small intestine using a special suture. The laparoscopic method involves the use of special instruments and cameras to perform surgery through small punctures in the abdomen.

After surgery, the patient may experience some discomfort associated with digestive disorders and changes in diet. However, in most cases, enteroenteroanastomosis is an effective way to restore the patency of the small intestine.

It is important to note that enterojejunostomy should only be performed by experienced surgeons in specialized medical institutions. Otherwise, serious complications may occur, such as intestinal obstruction, bleeding, or infection.
