Abstract
Gastric outlet obstruction after esophagogastrectomy with a drainage procedure is unusual, but when encountered, its management can be formidable. A Rous-en-Y intrathoracic gastrojejunostomy was created in a 74-year-old woman 2 years after Ivor Lewis esophagogastrectomy for benign disease to treat severe gastric outlet obstruction at the native pylorus.
