Gastrectasia

Gastrectasia is excessive distension of the stomach. The cause of this stretching may be pyloric stenosis; It can also develop as a result of injury or complications after certain abdominal surgeries.

With gastrectasis, the volume of the stomach increases, which leads to disruption of its normal motility. This causes stagnation of food and gastric juices, which can lead to irritation of the mucous membrane. Symptoms of gastrectasis are a feeling of heaviness and fullness in the epigastrium after eating, heartburn, nausea, vomiting, and bloating.

The diagnosis of gastrectasis is established on the basis of anamnesis, clinical picture and instrumental research methods - radiography and endoscopy of the stomach.

Treatment of gastrectasis is aimed at eliminating the cause that caused the distension of the stomach. Conservative therapy is carried out to improve motility and evacuation function of the stomach. In severe cases, surgical intervention may be required - gastric resection or gastroenteroanastomosis. The prognosis with timely treatment is favorable.

Gastrectasia of the stomach, or gastrectasia of the stomach

Title: Gastrectasis of the stomach - HYPERRECTRASIC stomach.

Gastrectomy, dilatation of the stomach with pathological enlargement. The reasons for this process have not yet been established. This usually occurs after operations that cause paralysis of the pyloric sphincter, with congenital deformation of the pyloric part of the stomach or as a result of chronic gastritis, atrophy and atrophic gastritis and peptic ulcer of the stomach and duodenum. If gastrectosis extends to a significant part of the stomach, a hernia occurs in the area of ​​the hiatal opening, usually to the left. Gastric ulcer and chronic nonspecific ulcerative gastritis are localized predominantly in the lower third of the anterior part of the bulb, and in other cases there is a proximal location.

**Complications** Occur more often with medium and large sizes of gastrointestinal tract. Dysphagia occurs no earlier than 5-6 months after surgery, chills during an attack G.Zh. are additional confirmation of the diagnosis; its spasm is noted. The iliac lymph nodes in patients suffering from gastrointestinal tract are enlarged; during attacks of pain, acute abdominal pain may occur
