Figure 1 Immediate and 2-hour delayed fluoroscopic images showing delayed gastric emptying and subcompensated gastric outlet obstruction due to fixed narrowing of the pyloroduodenal region.
A: Immediate fluoroscopic image showing contrast retention within the stomach; B: Two-hour delayed image demonstrating persistent contrast stasis, consistent with subcompensated gastric outlet obstruction due to impaired pyloroduodenal passage.
Figure 2
Magnetic resonance imaging showing gallstone disease with biliary outflow impairment and deformity of the extrahepatic bile duct at the level of the gallbladder neck.
Figure 3
Dense inflammatory conglomerate involving the gallbladder, hepatoduodenal ligament, and pyloroduodenal region identified during abdominal exploration, resulting in marked deformation of the gastric outlet (blue arrow).
Figure 4
Mobilization of the duodenum and stomach using the Kocher maneuver, allowing assessment of the extent and irreversibility of pyloroduodenal stenosis.
Figure 5 Cholecystectomy and gallstone extraction.
A: Cholecystectomy with removal of gallstones; B: Removal of migrated gallstones from the pyloric stomach through the cholecystogastric fistula.
Figure 6 Distal gastrectomy and reconstruction.
A: Distal gastrectomy involving approximately two-thirds of the stomach; B: Billroth II gastrojejunostomy (end-to-side, Hofmeister-Finsterer modification).
Figure 7
Intraoperative cholangiography demonstrating patency of the biliary tree and absence of residual choledocholithiasis.
Figure 8 Macroscopic pathological specimens.
A: Macroscopic specimen of the resected distal stomach, gallbladder, and removed gallstones showing chronic inflammatory and cicatricial changes; B: Cross-sectional view of the stomach demonstrating fibrotic remodeling of the pyloric region.
