Roux-en-Y jejunostomy in gastroparesis: Insight into patient perspectives and outcomes

Despite some challenges, Roux-en-Y jejunostomy led to notable improvements in symptoms, nutrition, and quality of life for most patients with refractory gastroparesis. It may be a viable option for long-term enteral nutrition support in carefully selected patients. Further research is needed to optimize patient selection and manage complications.

Abstract

Despite some challenges, Roux-en-Y jejunostomy led to notable improvements in symptoms, nutrition, and quality of life for most patients with refractory gastroparesis. It may be a viable option for long-term enteral nutrition support in carefully selected patients. Further research is needed to optimize patient selection and manage complications.
