Gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) is a clinical syndrome characterized by epigastric abdominal pain and postprandial vomiting due to mechanical obstruction. The term gastric outlet obstruction is a misnomer since many cases are not due to isolated gastric pathology, but rather involve duodenal or extraluminal disease.

Symptoms of gastric outlet obstruction include nausea, nonbilious vomiting, epigastric pain, early satiety, abdominal distention, and weight loss.

The operation usually performed is an antrectomy, the removal of the antral portion of the stomach. Other surgical approaches include: vagotomy, the severing of the vagus nerve, the Billroth I, a procedure which involves anastomosing the duodenum to the distal stomach, or a bilateral truncal vagotomy with gastrojejunostomy .
Pathophysiology. In a peptic ulcer it is believed to be a result of edema and scarring of the ulcer, followed by healing and fibrosis, which leads to obstruction of the gastroduodenal junction (usually an ulcer in the first part of the duodenum).

Signs and symptoms. The main symptom is vomiting , which typically occurs after meals, of undigested food devoid of any bile. A history of previous peptic ulcers and loss of weight is not uncommon. In advanced cases, signs to look for on physical examination are wasting and dehydration.
A pancreatic pseudocyst can cause gastric compression. Pyloric mucosal diaphragm could be a rare cause. Malignant. Tumours of the stomach, including adenocarcinoma (and its linitis plastica variant), lymphoma, and gastrointestinal stromal tumours.
Gastric Outlet Obstruction (GOO) describes a mechanical obstruction of the proximal gastrointestinal tract, occurring at some level between the gastric pylorus and the proximal duodenum, resulting in an inability in the stomach to empty.
Patient with GOO will present with epigastric pain, postprandial vomiting, and early satiety. Due to the proximal nature of the obstruction, often no change in bowel habit is reported initially.
A key differential for GOO is gastroparesis, where patients have delayed gastric emptying and have similar clinical features to GOO, However, gastroparesis is caused by neuromuscular dysfunction and there is no mechanical obstruction present. Endoscopy (Fig. 2) and / or CT imaging (as discussed below) will help to differentiate.
Patients with suspected GOO should have routine bloods performed, including FBC ad CRP (to assess inflammatory markers), U&Es (to assess for an AKI, in the context of dehydration and hypovolaemia), and a clotting screen and Group and Save (for work-up for surgery)
In all cases, resuscitative IV fluids should be started and the patient catheterised. A NG tube should be placed to decompress the stomach (this is the most important initial step) and the patient started on IV proton pump therapy (PPI).
