title: [Surgical treatment of anastomosis ulcers. 1. Short-term results].
abstract: Records of 151 patients from the years 1964--1979 with anastomotic ulcers including relapses of ulcers after vagotomy reveal a total lethality of 3.3 per cent after reoperation. Re-gastrectomy with or without additional vagotomy shows a lethality of 5.7 per cent. If vagotomy alone is carried out there were no lethality and nearly no serious complications. Gastrectomy because of recurrent peptic ulcer after primary vagotomy has also no lethality. With regard to less serious postoperative complications including lethality after vagotomy instead of re-gastrectomy we should favour vagotomy for re-operation. Our further examinations will show whether this attitude is justified by long-term results after re-operation of the stomach in consequence of recurrent pepti ulcer.
