Abstract:
The authors have examined a group of 30 patients at 24-36 months after extensive resections within the alimentary tract. The bone density assessment has been done. The results were compared to those obtained from another group of 30 patients awaiting sinister operations. Bone loss was found in all postoperative patients. However, it was statistically significant only in patients after pancreatoduodenectomy.
