  • Title: [The prevention of postresection disorders in the surgical treatment of cancer of the distal stomach].
    Author: Sheleshko PV, Artiukh GF.
    Journal: Vopr Onkol; 1989; 35(11):1358-61. PubMed ID: 2609530.
    Abstract:
    Four hundred and forty-seven patients who had undergone various surgical procedures for stage II-III cancer of the distal part of the stomach and 35 operated cases of chronic gastric ulcer were followed for three years. The study showed distal subtotal resection of the stomach using transversal gastroenteroanastomosis with a long loop and additional transversal enteroenteric anastomosis to offer functional advantage in cancer patients. These valve anastomoses prevented reflux of duodenal contents to the gastric stump, assured a stepwise emptying of the resected stomach and precluded passing of food to efferent intestine thus preventing dumping and afferent loop syndromes.
