  • Title: [Gastroduodenal surgery using mechanical staplers: our experience].
    Author: Cagnazzo A, De Marini L, Amato A, Razzetta F, Mattioli FP.
    Journal: G Chir; 1990 Mar; 11(3):149-50. PubMed ID: 2223486.
    Abstract:
    Results of 71 operations of the gastroduodenal tract performed with stapling devices are reported (51 for malignant diseases and 20 for benign diseases). 20 total gastrectomies, 21 Billroth II gastrectomies, 17 Roux en-Y-gastrojejunoplasty, 6 Billroth II to Roux-ex-Y-conversion and 7 palliative gastroenteroanastomosis were performed, using TA, GIA and EEA stapling instruments. The analysis of the reported data brought us to some considerations regarding the safety and versatility of mechanical viscerosynthesis, also in relation to some technical aspects.
