Dumping syndrome is a common complication of esophageal or gastric surgery. Patients with late dumping syndrome usually suffer from hypoglycemic symptoms such as palpitation, tremor, and general weakness. Hypoglycemia induced convulsive seizure due to late dumping syndrome is rarely reported. We report a 46-year-old man with postprandial hypoglycemic convulsive seizure as the first symptom of late dumping syndrome.

덤핑 증후군은 소아의 위공장 경관식이의 합병증으로 발생할 수 있는 질환으로, 19개월된 여아에서 식후 나타나는 특징적인 임상증상과 당부하 검사상 조기 고혈당 후 나타나는 후기 저혈당으로 진단할 수 있었으며, 생옥수수 전분을 포함한 식이요법만으로도 증상의 호전과 영양상태의 호전을 보일 수 있었다.

Purpose: This study aimed to examine the early postprandial changes in gastrointestinal (GI) hormones and hemodynamics in terms of early dumping syndrome after gastrectomy for gastric cancer. Materials and Methods: Forty patients who underwent gastrectomy for gastric cancer and 18 controls without previous abdominal surgery were enrolled. Before and 20 minutes after liquid meal ingestion, blood glucose, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), and GLP-2 concentrations and superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and renal blood flow were measured. The patients' heart rates were recorded at 5-minute intervals. All subjects were examined for dumping syndrome using a questionnaire based on Sigstad's clinical diagnostic index. Results: The postprandial increases in blood glucose, GLP-1, and GLP-2 levels as well as SMA blood flow and heart rate were greater in patients who underwent gastrectomy than in controls (all P<0.010). Patients who underwent gastrectomy showed a significantly decreased renal blood flow (P<0.001). Among patients who underwent gastrectomy, distal gastrectomy was a significant clinical factor associated with a lower risk of early dumping syndrome than total gastrectomy (hazard ratio, 0.092; 95% confidence interval, 0.013-0.649; P=0.017). Patients who underwent total gastrectomy showed a greater postprandial increase in blood glucose (P<0.001), GLP-1 (P=0.030), and GLP-2 (P=0.002) levels as well as and heart rate (P=0.013) compared to those who underwent distal gastrectomy. Conclusions: Early postprandial changes in GI hormones and hemodynamics were greater in patients who underwent gastrectomy than in controls, especially after total gastrectomy, suggesting that these changes play a crucial role in the pathophysiology of early dumping syndrome.

The purpose of this study is to explore the effectiveness of Gamchobunmil-tang as a treatment for early dumping syndrome. A patient reported abdominal pain after eating, was not able to eat more than two spoons of thin rice gruel, and had lost 8 kg of his weight. The patient was treated with Gamchobunmil-tang three times a day for 12 days. The effects of the treatment were evaluated using the Visual Analogue Scale and the amount and form of the patient's intake. After treatment, the pain due to the dumping syndrome decreased. The Visual Analogue Scale score dropped significantly from 9 to 2, and increased amounts and novel forms of the food the patient consumed were observed. Despite the lack of a case, the results showed that Gamchobunmil-tang was effective in reducing the pain caused by the early dumping syndrome. Further research might prove that Gamchobunmil-tang could be an alternative treatment method for early dumping syndrome.

The purpose of this study was to report the clinical effects of Korean medicine on a patient who suffered from Early Dumping Syndrome with diarrhea, abdominal pain, anorexia, and insomnia after gastrectomy. The patient was treated with herbal medicine, acupuncture and moxibustion use in combination with Western medicine for 4 weeks. Though anorexia was maintained at a similar level, other clinical symptoms (diarrhea, abdominal pain, and insomnia) were improved after Korean medicine treatment. Therefore, Korean medicine may be effective for treatment of Early Dumping Syndrome after gastrectomy.

덤핑증후군은 소아에서 위식도역류의 치료로 위저추벽성형술을 시행하는 경우에 잘 발생하는 질환으로 당 부하 검사를 통하여 식사 직후에 나타나는 고혈당과 뒤이어 나타나는 저혈당을 보임으로써 진단될 수 있으며, 생 옥수수 전분을 포함한 식이 요법으로 효과적으로 치료될 수 있다. 저자들은 위저추벽성형술을 시행 받은 뒤에 덤핑증후군이 발생한 1례를 경험하였고, 본 질환이 소아에서 위저추벽성형술과 같은 위 수술 후에 수유장애가 있을 경우 반드시 의심해보아야 할 질환이라고 사료되어 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

This clinical study describes the effect of Korean medicine as a treatment for early dumping syndrome. The patient was treated with herbal medicine (Sogeonjung-tang and Jeongjeon-gami-ijin-tang), acupuncture, and moxibustion for 34 days. The degree of treatment was measured by the amount of oral intake and the number of vomiting incidents. During the treatment, the patient's symptoms were relieved and the amount of oral intake increased. At first, the patient vomited once or twice per day, and the amount of oral intake was about 600-700 cc. After the treatment, the patient did not vomit and oral intake increased about two fold. This clinical case study shows the positive effect of herbal medicine, acupuncture, and moxibustion on relief of symptoms of early dumping syndrome.

After a gastrectomy, various forms of postgastrectomy syndrome may happen, such as dumping syndrome, reflux $^{\wedge}esophagitis$, afferent loop syndrome, marginal ulcer, anemia, etc. These can cause some problems in the quality of life for post-gastrectomy patients. This oriental medicine treatment was designed to improve digestion and relieve symptoms, correct imbalance and prevent relapse in each case. This study suggests a level of efficacy of oriental medicine(Samryungbaekchul-san, Bobi-tang) in treating postgastrectomy syndrome.

목적: 하부 위암의 절제술 후 각각의 재건술에 따른 환자의 위배출시간과 영양상태, 덤핑 증후군의 발생정도를 비교하여 환자의 증상과 삶의 질을 개선하는 방법을 찾고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 1999년 6월부터 2002년 7월까지 원위부 위암으로 절제술을 시행한 환자 중 2003년 1월 한 달간 외래에서 술 후 6개월 이상 경과한 환자 122명을 대상으로 하였다. 위십이지장문합술을 받은 환자(이하 B-I군)는 51명, 위공장문합술을 받은 환자(이하 B-II군)는 71명이었다. 위배출검사는 동위원소 검사법을 이용하여 T1/2값을 얻어 비교하였고, 식사 횟수와 양, 체중감소 정도를 비교하였다. 수술 후 복부증상을 비교하였으며, 덤핑증후군은 Sigstad score를 측정하여 비교하였다. 결과: 수술 후 6개월의 T1/2값은 B-I군에서 지연되어 있었다($159.4{\pm}31.0min$). 12개월 후에는 B-I군의 위배출시간이 빨라져 B-I군과 B-II군 사이의 위배출 시간의 차이가 없어졌다. 식사 횟수는 각 군 간의 차이가 없었고 일회식사량은 수술 전과 비교해 보았을 때 6개월째는 각군간의 차이가 없었으나 12개월에는 B-I군이 B-II군에 비해 식사량이 많은 것으로 나타났다(P=0.038). 수술 후 체중은 B-I군이 B-II군에 비해 체중감소가 의미있게 적은 것으로 나타났다(P=0.023). Sigstad dumping score는 B-I군에서 6개월째에는 7.6점, 12개월째에는 3.4점으로 시간이 경과함에 따라 덤핑 증후군의 빈도가 감소하나 B-II군에서는 시간의 경과해도 덤핑 증후군의 빈도에는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 결론: 원위부 위암환자에서 근치적 수술이 가능한 한도에서는 Billroth I 술식이 체중감소가 적고, 복부 증상도 적게 나타났으며 덤핑증후군의 빈도도 낮아 환자의 삶의 질을 개선하는데 B-II 술식보다 유용한 술식으로 생각된다.

Gastric cancer is a rare condition affecting patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). The mainstay of treatment is total gastrectomy. Since duodenal cancer is the most common cause of death after total colectomy in FAP, endoscopic surveillance for duodenal cancer is mandatory. Here, we describe the use of an isoperistaltic jejunal loop interposition technique to reconstruct the digestive tract after total gastrectomy in 2 patients with FAP. There were no early or late complications. Both patients are still alive and in good clinical condition. They did not experience weight loss or symptoms of dumping syndrome. Duodenal endoscopic surveillance after this technique was easier than after the classical Roux-en-Y reconstruction. Hence, regular follow-up was possible for both patients.
