A 53-year-old man underwentdistal gastrectomy with Roux-en-Y(R-Y)reconstruction for gastric cancer. An R-Y anastomosis was performed usinga 21mm circular stapler. Five years postoperatively, he visited our hospital with anorexia. An abdominal computed tomography scan showed dilatation of the afferent loop. He was diagnosed with afferent loop syndrome due to R-Y anastomotic stenosis that resulted in poor oral intake and malnutrition. A U-shaped bend created by an adhesion caused a bowel obstruction of the Y-anastomotic site for which the patient underwent R-Y loop reconstruction with an aboral pouch usinga 60mm linear stapler. He has been well without postoperative complaints. Here, we report a case of R-Y loop reconstruction with an aboral pouch for afferent loop obstruction complicated by stenosis of the Y-anastomotic site after distal gastrectomy.
