Recurring ulceration, after partial gastric resection for peptic ulcer, is infrequant. However, when it occurs, it often is a serious lesion. When such a condition develops, the early symptoms are characteristically of the type of ulcer, but soon these features may be lost on account of the penetrating and inflammatory nature of the lesions. The distress is severe; often frequent feedings at night and even opiates are required for relief. The pain may be referred to parts far distant from the site of the ulcer. The symptoms often are extremely refractory to medical treatment and in some cases there has been more than one recurrence. |
