title: [Selective vagotomy plus antrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy in the treatment of duodenal ulcer].
abstract: From 1982 to October 1990, 284 patients with duodenal ulcer were surgically treated. Partial gastrectomy and Billroth anastomosis (PGB) were performed in 92 patients, selective vagotomy plus antrectomy and Billroth anastomosis (VAB) in 92, and selective vagotomy plus antrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy (VARY) in 98. Follow-up showed that VARY was superior in many respects to PGB and VAB such as in decreasing gastric acidity, long-term complications and Visick grading of I and II (P < 0.05). We conclude that VARY can be used in the treatment of duodenal ulcer.
