[Results of stomach resection by Billroth II with compression gastroenteroanastomosis]

Two methods of resection of the stomach by Billroth II were developed with creation of transversal termino-lateral gastroenteroanastomosis (TTLGEA) and transversal latero-lateral gastroenteroanastomosis (TLLGEA) using compression implant from nickel-titan alloy which possessed "memory of the form" (IMF). 231 resections of the stomach by Billroth II were carried out with formation TTLGEA in 181 cases and TLLGEA in 50 cases. Complications after these operations with compression gastroenteroanastomosis were studied as well as endoscopic and roentgenologic picture of the anastomosis in early postoperative period. Complications were revealed in 8 patients (3.39%). According to gastroscopy data formation of gastroenteroanastomosis is completed 12-14 days after the operation. It heals by primary intention. Roentgenological examination of evacuation from the gastric stump on days 12-14 showed portional, rhythmic evacuation. Evacuation disturbances in 2.1% cases were due to rejection of IMF.
