[On the problem of assessing quality of life of stomach cancer patients after surgical treatment].
375 patients, aged 31-71, received surgery for stomach cancer stage I-III (1984-1999) (gastroectomy--266, subtotal resection--109; operation after Roux (group I)--313, jejunoplasty (group II)--62). Our findings on the end results based on general clinical examinations data and a modified EORTC questionnaire pointed to advantages offered by jejunoplasty since it was for lower better quality of life.
