• Summary Jejunogastric intussusception (JGI) is a rare but life‐threatening complication of gastrectomy. It is a complication of previous surgery on the stomach, such as Billroth II gastrectomy, Roux‐en‐Y anastomosis, and gastrojejunostomy. Early diagnosis is important but difficult in acute JGI. Emergency surgical intervention is necessary in most cases and can prevent clinical deterioration. We report such a case that presented with hematemesis.
