title: [Bulbantrectomy with truncal vagotomy in the surgical treatment of duodenal ulcer].
abstract: Duodenal ulcer benefits of very efficient medical treatment. In currently medical practice exist many cases with complicated duodenal ulcer (by stenosis or penetration in neighbor organs like pancreas or biliary tract or painful forms etc.) to which surgical treatment is necessary. Based on the retrospective study of 116 patients operated between 1991-2002 years for gastric or duodenal ulcer, this paper demonstrates that bulbantrectomy associated with bilateral truncal vagotomy (63.7% of cases) is the best surgery in the treatment of duodenal complicated ulcer or resistant to the medical procedures. Provided by correct indication, the intervention is the most pathogenic, offering the best immediate and long term postoperative results. If the bulbantrectomy is contraindicated (critical general status, etc.), the alternative is a bilateral truncal vagotomy associated with a drainage procedure: pyloroplasty (6.9% of cases) or gastroenterostomy. When the vagotomy are contraindicated or cannot be correctly performed, a large gastrectomy (29.3% of cases) followed by gastroduodenal (preferable) or gastrojejunal anastomosis are practiced.
