Objective  To evaluate whether jejunal interposition pouch (JIP) reconstruction is an ideal procedure of digestive tract reconstruction after total gastrectomy.
Methods  Ninetyfour patients after total gastrectomy had randomly divided into two groups, JIP group 42 cases and RouxenY pouch (RYP) group 52 cases. The gastrointestinal function improvement in body weight and nutritional parameters (serum albumin, hemoglobin level, and serum protein) were compared 1 year after surgery for the two groups.
Results  The nutritional condition of JIP group and RYP group after operation had improved (P<0.01); and the condition of JIP group with fewer symptom problems demonstrated much more better than standard RYP group (P<0.01).
Conclusion  JIP that could obtain partly compensatory function after total gastrectomy is an ideal reconstruction.
