    Author: Lacitignola S, Minardi M, Palmieri R, Nigri A, Caliandro L, Rosellini A.
    Journal: JSLS; 2006; 10(1):37-8. PubMed ID: 16709354.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVES: We analyzed our experience with the laparoscopic approach for treating benign gastric lesions. METHODS: Between June 1998 and June 2002, we performed 18 gastric resections with the laparoscopic approach for 7 pyloric stenoses, 8 recurrent duodenal ulcers, and 3 chronic gastric ulcers. RESULTS: In our series, we performed Billroth II laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with no morbidity and mortality. CONCLUSIONS: Billroth II laparoscopic distal gastrectomy is safe in cases of benign gastric or duodenal lesions.
