Diagnostic investigation, intervention, and outcome for post-subtotal gastrectomy patients who present with jaundice
Gastric cancer recurrence and newly-developed pancreaticobiliary malignancies were the main causes of obstructive jaundice in patients who had subtotal gastrectomy. PET/CT was superior to MRI/MRCP and contrast-enhanced CT in determining lesion extensiveness. Percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage (PTCD) was the preferred method for managing obstructive jaundice. Despite the effectiveness of interventions, a significant number of patients experienced short-term disease progression.
