Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided gastrojejunostomy for malignant afferent loop syndrome with hemorrhage in a patient with recurrent peritoneal dissemination

Afferent loop syndrome is a late adverse event after gastrojejunostomy which involves increased intraluminal pressure, progresses rapidly, and requires appropriate decompression treatment. Patients in poor condition require less invasive treatments. Yamamoto and colleagues report a case of successfu...
