Overview

GASTRIC OUTLET OBSTRUCTION: Pyloric obstruction

Gastric outlet obstruction (GOO,) is the result of any pathology that provides mechanical obstruction to emptying of gastric contents. Two important causes of GOO include: Benign: 37 percent of cases, includes peptic disease Malignant: 53 percent of cases

Location of the stomach: Left upper quadrant of the abdomen Parts of the stomach: Cardia Body Antrum Pylorus


Historical Perspective

Classification

Pathophysiology

Gastric Outlet Obstruction (GOO) may be caused by intrinsic or extrinsic pathologies that involve the antrum and the pylorus.

Causes

Benign causes

Acquired:[1][2][3][4]

Congenital:[34][35]

Malignant causes

Differentiating Gastric outlet obstruction from Other Diseases

Epidemiology and Demographics

  • Incidence: less than 5% in patients with PUD.
  • PUD is the most common benign cause of GOO.
  • In the US, five percent PUD cases require an average of 2000 surgeries annually.
  • Pancreatic cancer is the most common malignant cause of GOO.
  • The incidence of GOO in cases with pancreatic cancer is approximately 20%.

Risk Factors

Screening

Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis

Natural History

Complications

Prognosis

Diagnosis

History and Symptoms

The following history is relevant in patients with GOO:[49][50]

Clinical presentation:

Early stages:[37][5]

Late stages:[51][39][40][52]

Physical Examination

In the late stages of GOO, patients may develop signs of malnutrition and incomplete obstruction.

Laboratory Findings

Imaging Findings

Imaging studies such as plain radiographs, contrast upper gastrointestinal (GI) studies and Computed Tomography (CT) with oral contrast may be used for evaluating patients with symptoms of GOO.

Plain radiographs

Contrast upper gastrointestinal (GI) studies (Gastrografin or barium)

Computed tomography (CT) with oral contrast

Other Diagnostic Studies

Endoscopy

Sodium chloride load test

Needle-guided biopsy

Treatment

Medical Therapy

Surgery

Prevention
