Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Reduction of Gastroesophageal Intussusception With Gastropexy.

We report the rare case of a 71-year-old man with a medical history including dysphagia, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and achalasia with remote open transthoracic Heller myotomy who presented acutely with symptoms of esophageal obstruction. Sustained gastroesophageal intussusception was diagnosed with esophagogastroduodenoscopy and computed tomography. The patient underwent urgent robot-assisted laparoscopic reduction with gastropexy. Intraoperatively, the gastric and esophageal tissue appeared inflamed without evidence of necrosis or perforation. The patient recovered well without complications. This report describes a case of successful surgical treatment of gastroesophageal intussusception by a robotic approach.
