title: [The treatment to the high gastric ulcer (author's transl)].
abstract: This is a report on 64 patients, who were operated on because of gastric ulcer situated near the cardia. We found the best results after the so-called step-like resection, which is preferable to selective vagotomy with excision of the ulcer and pyloroplasty because of the special conditions of the secretion of gastric juice in the case of high ulcers. Because of the danger of the development of a cancer in a B-II-stomach we prefer the B-I-anastomosis. For ulcers with stenosis of the esophagus a cardiofundectomy should be performed. Ulcers high on the greater curvature and in the fundus should be excised and a distal gastrectomy (B-I) should follow. The sole excision of the ulcer or the operation according to Kelling-Madlener are not recommended.
