title: [The failures of surgery in peptic ulcer. Report of 62 reoperations (author's transl)].
abstract: 62 reoperations were performed in 54 patients for failure of surgery for chronic ulcer. In 15 cases there was a recurrence of an ulcer left in position, in 32 cases there was an anastomotic ulcer, in 4 cases, severe hemorrhage for severe inflammation of the stoma without recurrence of the ulcer and in 11 cases, there were severe functional disorders. The authors are convinced that in the treatment of recurrent ulcer, vagotomy should always complete gastrectomy and vice versa. It is because they did not follow this advice in the early stages that they had to reoperate certain patients several times for new ulcer recurrences. The results of reoperation for functional disorders when indicated in a gastrectomised patient were mediocre in the vagotomised patients.
