Sažetak

Double pylorus (DP), is a form of gastroduodenal fistula, which consists of a short accessory canal from the gastic antrum to the duodenal bulb, and mostly occrus in the background of peptic ulcer disease. Prevalence, as well long-term follow-up of patients with DP is less elucidated in western countries. Aim of our study was to analyse demografic, clinical and endoscopic characteristics in our case-series. During 2008–2013. a total of 23836 upper endoscopies were performed in 16759 patients. DP was diagnosed in 6 patients (prevalence of 0.04%). The follow-up period was f 8 to 72 months. In 87% DP was a complication of the upper gastrointestinal bleeding. In 83% cases opening of the fistula was on lesser curvature of gastric antrumu. During follow-up period the fistula healing did not occur in any of our patients. DP is a very rare entity, with a benign course of the disease Associated comorbidity and use of ulceriform medications plays important role in persistence of DP, wheras possible eradication of Helicobacter infection in this background remains elusive.
