title: [Esophageal perforations after vagotomy].
abstract: Oesophageal perforation after vagotomy is a quite rare complication. We know figures between 0.4 and 0.8%. The radiodiagnostic verification has central significance for a possibly necessary reoperation, and hence the prognosis of the patient, if this perforation is not recognized under the operation, or necrosis of the wall should happen in the early post-operative phase. We give information about four own observations.
