ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Ever since the first total gastrectomy, there has always been a great concern in increasing the survival of patients, and with the advance of techniques, in improving the quality of life of these patients. The most common reconstruction technique of the gastrointestinal transit is the Roux-en-Y. The reposition of a functional pouch in place of the resected stomach was proposed to minimize the postprandial symptoms, improve the nutritional grade and consequently, the quality of life. The Safatle reconstruction of the gastrointestinal transit technique consists of, in short, in the association of the interposition of the jejunal loop with partial transit through the duodenum, with an inverted Roux-en-Y and with the creation of a pouch which resembles the dynamics of the stomach, achieved by duodenojejunal segment which has an antiperistalsis emptying.

AIM:

To assess, by radiographic means, the emptying of the duodenojejunal pouch in patients submitted to total gastrectomy using the Safatle reconstruction technique.

METHOD:

Twelve patients submitted to total gastrectomy using the Safatle technique due to gastric cancer were studied. They were summoned to perform contrasted radiographies of the esophagus-duodenum-jejunum by the videofluoroscopic method during the months of July and August, 2005.

RESULTS:

All the patients presented satisfactory movement of the duodenojejunal pouch and an adequate emptying in antiperistalsis without food stasis. There has been an average 25-minute drainage time of the duodenojejunal pouch.

CONCLUSION:

The duodenojejunal pouch, in the patients submitted to total gastrectomy using the Safatle reconstruction, presented adequate emptying and movement.
RESUMO
RACIONAL Desde a primeira gastrectomia total, houve sempre a preocupação em aumentar a sobrevida e, com o aprimoramento das técnicas, de melhorar a qualidade de vida. A técnica mais aceita para a reconstrução do trânsito intestinal após gastrectomia total é a em Y-de-Roux. A reposição de um reservatório funcional no lugar do estômago ressecado foi proposta para minimizar os sintomas pós-prandiais, melhorar o grau nutricional e, conseqüentemente, a qualidade de vida. A técnica de reconstrução do trânsito intestinal pós-gastrectomia à Safatle consiste, em síntese, numa associação da interposição de alça jejunal com trânsito parcial pelo duodeno, com o Y-de-Roux invertido, e com a criação de um reservatório que se aproxima da dinâmica do estômago, obtido à custa de um segmento duodenojejunal com esvaziamento em antiperistalse.

OBJETIVO:

Avaliar, por método radiológico, o esvaziamento da bolsa duodenojejunal em doentes submetidos a gastrectomia total com reconstrução à Safatle.

MÉTODO:

Foram estudados 12 doentes submetidos a gastrectomia total por câncer gástrico com reconstrução à Safatle, convocados para realizar radiografias contrastadas de esôfago-duodeno-jejuno pelo método videofluoroscópico nos meses de julho a agosto de 2005.

RESULTADOS:

Todos os doentes apresentaram motricidade satisfatória da bolsa duodenojejunal com adequado esvaziamento em antiperistalse sem estase alimentar. O tempo de esvaziamento da bolsa duodenojejunal foi de 25 minutos em média.

CONCLUSÃO:

A bolsa duodenojejunal, nos doentes submetidos a gastrectomia total com reconstrução à Safatle, apresentou adequado esvaziamento e motricidade.
