  • Title: [Motor-evacuatory function before and after vagotomy in middle-aged and aged patients].
    Author: Mirzaev AK.
    Journal: Khirurgiia (Mosk); 1989 Apr; (4):27-30. PubMed ID: 2739300.
    Abstract:
    The results of the study of the motor-evacuation function of the stomach before and after vagotomy in 168 elderly and old-aged patients with duodenal ulcer are analysed. The study was conducted by the methods of continuous electrogastrography and continuous radiogastrography. The motor-evacuation function of the stomach is weaker in healthy elderly persons and in elderly patients with peptic ulcer than in healthy young individuals and in young patients with ulcer. The authors emphasize that the methods are simple and objective and can be used for prolonged observation over the motor-evacuation function of the stomach before and after vagotomy in elderly and old-aged patients with peptic ulcer.
