JEJUNAL VILOUS ADENOMA CAUSING INTESTINAL OBSTRUCTION IN LATE POST-OPERATIVE GASTROPLASTY WITH ROUX-Y INTESTINAL BYPASS
Small bowel tumors are rare and difficult to diagnose due to the non-specificity of their symptoms. The incidence of these tumors has been increasing and becoming more evident with the use of large-scale endoscopic examinations. We report the case of a patient in the late postoperative period of gastroplasty with Roux-en-Y intestinal bypass who presented with nausea and vomiting. Polypoid lesion (villous adenoma) was identified in the alimentary loop causing intestinal obstruction.

Abstract:
Small bowel tumors are rare and difficult to diagnose due to the non-specificity of their symptoms. The incidence of these tumors has been increasing and becoming more evident with the use of large-scale endoscopic examinations. We report the case of a patient in the late postoperative period of gastroplasty with Roux-en-Y intestinal bypass who presented with nausea and vomiting. Polypoid lesion (villous adenoma) was identified in the alimentary loop causing intestinal obstruction.
