A novel surgical technique rapidly controls massive duodenal ulcer bleeding by compressing the gastroduodenal artery. This method aids clear visualization for definitive suturing with reduced risk to the common bile duct.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Surgical Procedures
  • Anatomy

Background:

  • Massive duodenal ulcer bleeding presents significant surgical challenges.
  • Endoscopic hemostasis may be unsuccessful in severe cases.
  • Intraoperative control of hemorrhage is crucial for patient outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a practical intraoperative technique for controlling massive duodenal ulcer bleeding.
  • To facilitate clear identification of bleeding sites for definitive hemostasis.
  • To assess the anatomical basis and safety of the procedure regarding the common bile duct.

Main Methods:

  • A cohort of 14 patients with massive duodenal ulcer bleeding underwent the described surgical procedure.
  • The technique involves anterior gastroduodenotomy and digital compression of the gastroduodenal artery.

  • Cadaveric dissection (24 blocks) was performed to measure distances between the gastroduodenal artery and the omental foramen.

    • Main Results:

    • The described maneuver effectively decreased hemorrhage from massive duodenal ulcers.
    • Surgeons could clearly identify bleeding sites for precise suturing.
    • Cadaveric analysis confirmed the anatomical feasibility and low risk of common bile duct injury.

    Conclusions:

    • This surgical approach offers a rapid and effective method for managing massive duodenal ulcer bleeding.
    • The technique allows for secure hemostasis with minimal risk to adjacent structures.
    • It provides a valuable alternative when endoscopic methods fail.
