[Complications of the vagotomy during the operation and in the early postoperative period (author's transl)].
426 subdiaphragmatic vagotomy operations were performed by the authors. On basis of the results obtained they give full details of the complications arising in the course and in the early postoperative period after vagotomy, and also of the possibilities preventing these complications. They call the attention to the more frequent injuries of the spleen and the oesophagus, and to the increasing number of the subphrenic abscess. Finally, they emphasize the low mortality rate of the vagotomy in comparison to the traditional gastric resections.
