Gastrectomy is performed to manage severe peptic ulcers or the complications associated with peptic ulcers, such as bleeding or perforation, can alter the flow of contents from the stomach to the small intestine. A pyloroplasty may be done concurrently with these procedures to reconstruct the pyloric canal and facilitate more normal flow of stomach contents to the small intestine.
Pyloroplasty is a surgical procedure performed to widen or reconstruct the opening between the stomach and the small intestine to allow for normal movement of food and fluid.
The opening between the stomach and small intestine is called the pylorus. The pylorus, or pyloric canal, is a short canal primarily made of muscle. In some cases, the canal narrows (pyloric stenosis), interfering with the movement of food and fluids to the stomach. Narrowing of the pyloric canal may also be caused by gastric outlet obstruction.
