[Emptying of the stomach after selective proximal vagotomy (author's transl)].
Cream cheese containing 14C-labelled glutaminic acid was given to patients after proximal selective vagotomy and 14CO2 measured in the expired air in order to test the gastric emptying process. Results do not allow exact quantitative evaluation, however definite changes of gastric emptying for up to 6 month after surgery could be demonstrated.
