[Long-term effect of extended parietal cell vagotomy on patients' nutrition and digestive function].
In this study, 36 patients undergoing extended parietal cell vagotomy (EPCV) were compared with 30 patients with subtotal gastrectomy 7-14 years after surgery. The patients' nutritional status, gastric sectretion, gastrointestinal motility and intestinal absorption function were evaluated. The nutritional status was generally less satisfactory in 33. 3% patients with anaemia after gastrectomy and decrease of body weight in 54%. The patients after EPCV were all in good nutritional status, with no anemia; 56% of them had a body weight increase of more than 3kg. Therefore, the rationality of EPCV was estalished.
