title: [Relationship of postoperative complications to the surgical approach in treating cancer of the proximal portion of the stomach].
abstract: The authors have analyzed the interrelationship between postoperative complications and surgical approach in the treatment of carcinoma of the proximal portion of the stomach. The radical operations were carried out upon 140 patients; in 93 of them the transperitoneal approach was applied and in 47-the transpleural one. It has been found that in the transpleural approach the insufficiency of anastomosis sutures and postoperative pancreatitis occur much more seldom, and bronchopulmonary complications rate the first. Such complications are not infrequent after the transperitoneal approach either. The disorders of bronchial permeability constitute the main cause in the occurrence of these complications.
