Popis: Duodenal and marginal jejunal ulcers respond promptly to vagus section. When a prior gastric drainage procedure has been done, the approach of choice for these ulcers is vagectomy through the left chest. This report describes four patients who were subjected to thoracoscopic vagectomy and had prompt early benefit. A description of our technique is presented.
