[The surgical treatment of severe forms of alkaline reflux gastritis]

An examination of 9 patients with primary and postoperative reflux gastritis has found severe forms subject to surgical correction. When choosing the operative method, not only the intensity of reflux of the duodenal content and the character of alterations of gastric mucosa were taken into consideration but also the cause of chronic disorders of the duodenal patency. In all the patients complete disappearance of preoperative symptoms was noted.
