title: [The pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of postvagotomy diarrhea].
abstract: The article deals with questions of pathogenesis, diagnostics and treatment of postvagotomy diarrhea which was found in 6 (3.5%) of 174 patients with postvagotomy syndromes. The leading place in the development of diarrhea belongs to the disturbed regulatory function of the pyloric sphincter after vagotomy with pyloroplasty. In 3 patients with the II-III degree diarrhea medicamentous treatment was not effective and the patients were operated on. A new original method of surgical treatment of postvagotomy diarrhea is described. For the first time in the world the author has performed plasty of the vagus nerve with the help of epineural sutures in combination with true pyloroplasty with a good outcome.
