    Abstract:
    A study is presented of the motor-emptying function of the stomach evaluated by dynamic gastric scintigraphy in 43 patients with duodenal ulcer before and after vagotomy. In the early postoperative period 35 patients showed an enhanced emptying of the stomach, 8--a delayed. It was established that the most unfavourable results of vagotomy (gastrostasis, unhealed and relapsing ulcers) were observed in patients with preoperative dyskinesia of the duodenum and registered duodenogastric reflux. This should be considered in selecting the method of operative intervention. B-II gastric resection should be preferred in patients with duodenal dyskinesia.
