Functional results of different reconstructive procedures after total gastrectomy.
In 181 patients six reconstructive procedures were performed after total gastrectomy: Roux-en-Y (95), Henley (42), omega (21), Tomoda (16, Rosanov (4) and neogastrium (3). The functional results 2-4 months after operation were studied and compared by medical observers independently of the surgeons who had selected and performed the reconstructive procedures. Analysis of the functional results, and consideration of the degree to which the functional disorders associated with the various reconstructive procedures lend themselves to treatment, suggest that the Henley reconstructive procedure is the best, with the Roux-en-Y as a good second-best.
