Pyloric exclusion with gastrojejunostomy has been shown to be an effective adjuvant in the treatment of severe duodenal and pancreatic trauma. The authors have successfully applied this technique to the treatment of two patients with complicated pancreatic pseudocysts drained by cyst duodenostomy. A third patient with malignant duodenocolic fistula was palliated with this modality but eventually succumbed to his advanced disease.
