[Chronic duodenal stasis after gastric resection. Clinical contribution (author's transl)]

On the basis of two cases of chronic duodenal stasis following Billroth I and Billroth II the Authors analyse this syndrome not very frequently described in literature. They disagree with those who state that chronic duodenal stasis after gastric-resection is to be considered solely as a complication of gastric surgery, but rather tend to think that is misunderstanding may be a cause of considerable therapeutic failures.
