Immediate and late results in the surgical treatment of gastric ulcer.
The study of 205 patients showed that complicated gastric ulcer (GU) (55.57%) is followed by a high postoperative morbidity (8.78%) and mortality (1.95%). The good and very good results obtained by gastric resection (89.84%) confirm the value of this treatment in GU. The satisfactory (8.40%) and unsatisfactory (1.69%) results arise from errors of indications or deviation from the operative approach and technique. To obtain the best results the surgical act must be performed irreproachably and the patient must comply with protection prescriptions.
