[Proximal selective vagotomy in treatment of duodenal ulcer (author's transl)]

Thirty duodenal ulcer patients were subjected to proximal selective vagotomy (p.s.v.) and modified Dor antireflux plastic surgery. Accurate clinical, radiological, endoscopic, gastrosecretory, radioimmunological and PH-manometric tests were made before and 7 and 30 days after surgery. The results confirm the effectiveness of p.s.v. in treatment of ulcerous disease, and the usefulness of combining modified Dor plastic surgery in order to prevent postoperative feedback.
