Clinical Information
- A disorder characterized by a narrowing of the lumen of the duodenum.
- A disorder characterized by blockage of the normal flow of stomach contents through the duodenum.
- Blockage of the normal flow of stomach contents through the duodenum.
- Hindrance of the passage of luminal contents in the duodenum. Duodenal obstruction can be partial or complete, and caused by intrinsic or extrinsic factors. Simple obstruction is associated with diminished or stopped flow of luminal contents. Strangulating obstruction is associated with impaired blood flow to the duodenum in addition to obstructed flow of luminal contents.
- Narrowing of the lumen of the duodenum.
