  • Title: [Functional state of the stomach after vagotomy and the correction of various post-vagotomy complications].
    Author: Benedikt VV.
    Journal: Khirurgiia (Mosk); 1991 Mar; (3):52-7. PubMed ID: 1861387.
    Abstract:
    The author studied the secretory and motor-emptying function and the endoscopic picture of the stomach after various types of vagotomy conducted for peptic ulcer in 84 patients. The effect of the motor-evacuative function on the secretion values is shown. It is pointed out that secretion must be studied after restoration of adequate motor-emptying function, which is normalized 3-6 months after the operation. The endoscopic picture of the stomach depends on the type of the auxiliary operation on the stomach and the lapse of time after the operation, and the existence of reflux. The author suggests a differentiated complex of rehabilitation therapy including endogenous intracavitary pneumomassage of the stomach, its percutaneous electrostimulation, and the intake of mildly-mineralized water; early application of these measures raises the efficacy of the surgical treatment.
