[The choice of the surgical treatment method in gastric peptic ulcer]

Results of treatment of 351 patients with ulcer disease of the stomach have been analyzed. Operations were performed on 235 of them. It has been shown that resection of the stomach should be performed with ablation of the total lesser curvature. The resection volume depends on the spread of dysplastic alterations in the mucosa and can be as large as a subtotal resection. Better immediate and long-term results were obtained after resection of the stomach by the Roux method.
