title: [Proximal selective vagotomy. Statistical review approximately 200 cases of selective vagotomy. Preventive note].
abstract: Gastric resection for the correction of duodenal hyperacidity in patients suffering from duodenal ulcer has always seemed out of proportion to the objective which is simply that of the clinical and anatomopathological cure of a small lesion. Vagotomy, particularly proximal selective v. offers the surgeon a rational approach to duodenal ulcer. This is also seen in the series of the F. Ponti Surgery Division of the Ca' Granda General Hospital of Milan.
