    Abstract:
    Patients with perforating "silent" ulcers and patients with continuous ulcer histories must be subjected to similar surgical treatment. In most cases it may be truncal vagotomy with draining operation on the stomach. Operation of suturing the perforating ulcer is thought to be expedient in patients with acute ulcers (they make up not more than 25%), with severe concomitant diseases, in the terminal phase of diffuse peritonitis and when performed by surgeons with insufficient experience.
