    Abstract:
    In 79 patients with duodenal ulcer disease, the selective proximal vagotomy (SPV) with the use of the "Scalpel-1" CO2-laser was performed. In the experiment, it is shown that after dissection of the nerve trunks by the laser scalpel, no regeneration of neural tissue is observed. After laser SPV, the suppression of gastric acid production is more stable than after conventional vagotomy, the number of ulcer recurrences is lower.
