title: Some metabolic and haematological effects of oesophagojejunostomy with by-pass of the stomach.
abstract: Twelve subjects have been studied in whom oesophago-jejunostomy had been performed leaving the stomach in situ. All had considerable metabolic disturbance with steatorrhoea and inability to absorb vitamin B(12), and the operation has been abandoned in favour of oesophagojejuno-gastrostomy.
