[Choice of surgical strategy in gastroduodenal ulcer hemorrhage].
An analysis of 567 patients aged from 15 to 89 years with gastroduodenal bleedings was made. Ulcer disease of the stomach was diagnosed in 173 (30.5%) patients, ulcer disease of the duodenum--in 354 (62.4%) patients, 26 patients (4.6%) had combined gastroduodenal ulcers, 14 patients (2.5%) had ulcers of the gastroenteroanastomosis (after Billroth-II operations). Operations were fulfilled in 250 (44.1%) of all the patients. The operation of choice at the high state of bleeding is considered by the authors to be resection of 1/2 of the stomach by the method modified in the clinic. Postoperative lethality was 4%, complications were noted in 12% of the patients. All the complications were nonspecific, i.e. characteristic of any operations on organs of the abdominal cavity. Incompetence of the anastomosis sutures was not noted which in our opinion can be accounted for by a specific method of forming the anastomosis. The average amount of bed-days after the operations was 19.5 +/- 3.3.
