Jejunojejunostomy

Jejunojejunostomy is a surgical technique used in an anastomosis between two portions of the jejunum.[1] It is a type of bypass occurring in the intestine. It may lead to marked reduction in the functional volume of the intestine. This technique is also performed using Laparoscopic surgery.[2] The surgical procedure can lead to complications including infections, hemorrhage, strictures, ulcers, intestinal obstruction, thromboembolism and malnutrition.[3][4][5]
