title: Surgical treatment of chronic ischemia of the digestive organs caused by compressive stenosis of the celiac trunk.
abstract: Compressive stenosis of the celiac trunk is a common cause of chronic ischemia of the digestive organs with consequent morphological and functional changes in these organs. Decompression of the celiac trunk is an effective operation which normalizes the central and visceral circulation and results in resolution of ischemic lesions of the digestive organs and cicatrization of ischemic gastroduodenal ulcers, in particular. In some cases it is necessary to combine decompression of the celiac trunk with other surgical procedures to eliminate complications of ischemic lesions of the stomach and duodenum or other associated lesions.
