Q

why does afferent loops syndrome happen?

A

obstruction of the afferent loop resulting in accumulation of pancreatic and hepatobiliary secretions causing sever epigastric pain

resulting high intraluminal pressure forces the fluid into the stomach resulting in bilious vomiting and relief of symptoms
