Radiation enteritis and scarring from marginal gastrojejunostomy ulceration are the causes of mechanical blockage of the intramural area. [ 7 ] [ 8 ] Conditions that cause external compression include internal hernia , volvulus , entrapment, compression, kinking of the afferent loop, postoperative adhesion, and intussusception of the afferent loop.
