The stomach has a variety of functions that are lost with gastrectomy. Since nowadays a significant number of patients are long-term survivors, consequences of this loss need to be considered by gastroenterologists and surgeons alike. Abnormal transit, disturbed general nutrition and micronutrient deficiencies are the most common problems. The main resulting symptoms are early and late dumping, reflux esophagitis, weight loss, anemia, and osteopathy. It is not definitively clear if pouch reconstruction can really improve the situation. Dietary measures, rarely re-operation, and in particular adequate follow-up of metabolic and nutrition parameters with consequent substitution are the main therapeutic necessities.
