This patient had a history of multiple abdominal surgeries and recurrent ventral hernia (Fig 1A). Therefore, the usual methods of CT-guided or laparoscopic-assisted access to the gastric remnant was not possible without extensive adhesiolysis. We offered a novel technique to access and evaluate

symptomatic iron deficiency anemia that was not responsive to oral replacement. The procedure was performed in 2 stages. The patient was positioned supine while under general anesthesia. US was used to evaluate segment V, but no bile ducts were visible. The 2 visible branches of the segment 5 portal

vein were used as landmarks. After one puncture through the capsule with a 21-gauge Chiba needle (Cook Medical, Bloomington, Ind) and intrahepatic repositioning of the needle tip, a small bile duct was

partially entered. Contrast was injected to opacify the ducts while a fluoroscopically guided puncture with a second 21-gauge needle was made into a more central portion (Fig 1B). A 0.018-inch nitinol wire (Cook Medical, Bloomington, Ind) was passed into the duodenum. A 6F triaxial introducer set (Vascular Solutions, Maple Grove, Minn) was placed over the small wire, and a second 0.035-inch

wire placed into the duodenum. The transhepatic tract was dilated to accommodate a 12F sheath (Fig 1C). A 10F, 60-cm pediatric bronchoscope (BF-XP190, Olympus, Center Valley, Pa) was able to loop back into the proximal duodenum, but was too short to reach the gastric remnant. In addition, it was noted

that the transhepatic tract traversed a small hepatic vein branch. It was elected not to further dilate the tract, and a 14F internal-external drain was placed to allow the transhepatic tract to mature.

Two weeks later, under monitored anesthesia care, the biliary drainage catheter was replaced with a 14F sheath (Cook Medical, Bloomington, Ind). Catheters and wires were looped in the duodenum, and a stiff wire was curled in the gastric remnant. The Spyglass (10-French, 231-cm working length) (Boston Scientific, Marlborough, Mass) endoscope was placed through the sheath, looped in the duodenum, and advanced alongside the wire to visualize the gastric remnant (Fig.1D) (Video 1). At the completion of the procedure, a 14F internal-external biliary drain catheter was reinserted and removed 4 weeks later. Gastric biopsies of the remnant stomach showed reactive gastropathy.
