Abstract
Gastric outlet obstruction continues to be an indication for drainage despite the common use of powerful proton pump inhibitors. Minimal invasive surgery techniques now play a significant role in the treatment of this pathology. Complicated peptic ulcer disease and cancer are the two most common causes. To accomplish drainage, advanced laparoscopic techniques are required. A variety of procedures are possible, and these are discussed in detail in this report. The advantages of the laparoscopic approach have been realized in this group of patients.
