[Post-resection states after surgery for gastroduodenal ulcer disease]

A total of 115 patients with gastroduodenal ulcers submitted to surgery at the Department of Surgery in Hradec Králové between 1975 and 1979 had been reported on retrospectively. Authors emphasized the long term postgastrectomy results providing minimally 10-year-lasted intervals since. After a detailed clinical examination of patients, postgastrectomy results may be evaluated as good ones and comparable to a number of literary experiences. Therefore, they estimate this surgical modality of treatment to be justified and appropriate in respect with contemporary indicatory criteria as well as other therapeutic modalities known to exert influence on gastroduodenal ulcers.
