Core Tip
Core tip: We developed a method, fixation of Roux limb and duodenal stump. This not only changed the anatomy of the Petersen’s defect, but it also kept a fluent direction of gastrointestinal anastomosis and avoided a cross-angle after jejunojejunostomy. None of the patients had complications related to Petersen’s hernia and Roux stasis syndrome by at least three years of follow-up in this study. This technique is a simple and effective method to decrease the development of Petersen’s hernia and Roux stasis syndrome.
