Proximal gastric vagotomy in stenosed or perforated duodenal ulcer

Abstract: Thirty-five patients suffering from stenosed or perforated duodenal ulcer, who were submitted to surgical treatment in the form of proximal gastric vagotomy, are presented. There were no deaths in the series and the results were considered to be very good in the cases of perforation, whereas a high incidence of poor results (27 per cent) occurred in the cases of stenosis submitted to a proximal gastric vagotomy combined with digital dilatation of the pylorus.
