Background: The aetiology of gastric outlet obstruction globally has evolved from benign to malignant causes, but there seem to be no recent data on the trends in Ghana. The aim was, therefore, to identify the current patterns in the aetiology of gastric outlet obstruction in the adult population in Ghana. Methodology: This was a retrospective review of all confirmed cases of gastric outlet obstruction in the last decade, spanning from June 2004 to May 2014, that were managed at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital. Results: A total of 107 patients were managed for gastric outlet obstruction with a male to female ratio of 2.15:1 and most of the patients making 71.3% of cases belonged to the age range of 40 to 60 years. The predominant aetiology for gastric outlet obstruction was found to be gastric cancer (55.140%), followed by peptic ulcer disease (27.103%). Conclusion: The aetiology of gastric outlet obstruction in Ghana has evolved from benign to malignant causes, following current global trends. Gastric cancer is now the most important cause of gastric outlet obstruction in Ghana, followed by peptic ulcer disease which predominates as the commonest benign cause.

“…This complication can be treated surgically or endoscopically [39, 51]. Although only scattered evidence exists in the current literature, it has been suggested that gastric outlet obstruction can be successfully treated with H. pylori eradication in positive patients [52, 53]. It should be kept in mind that eradication therapy is indicated in all H. pylori -positive patients undergoing surgical or endoscopic therapy for gastric outlet obstruction.…”

Helicobacter pylori infection has been identified as a pathogenic factor in a number of gastroduodenal diseases, most importantly in gastric and duodenal ulcer disease. This association and the development of H. pylori eradication therapies has had a tremendous influence on the surgical therapy for these disorders. Decades ago, surgery was the therapy of choice for gastric and duodenal ulcers. Now, however, the first line of therapy includes treatment of H. pylori infection, suppression of gastric acid secretion, and protection of gastric mucosal barriers combined with a range of endoscopic procedures. These developments have had a major impact on the indications for surgery in benign gastroduodenal diseases. In addition, advances in our understanding of the pathogenetic mechanisms of H. pylori infection have also changed our views of gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma, gastric cancer, and gastroesophageal reflux disease.
