| Popis: |
Anterior seromyotomy with posterior truncal vagotomy was carried out on 25 patients with chronic duodenal ulcer to evaluate its effectiveness as an acid reducing procedure. There was a 76.7% and 76.8% reduction in basal and maximal acid output respectively (augmented histamine test). Twenty-three patients were asymptomatic at 4-6 years' follow-up, while two patients had delayed gastric emptying not necessitating reoperation. There was no mortality. This procedure is a reasonable alternative to highly selective vagotomy. |
