  • Title: [Behavior of acid secretion and clinical results following selective proximal vagotomy in uncomplicated duodenal ulcer].
    Author: Schröder H, Presselt N, Klauke AS, Klauke M.
    Journal: Zentralbl Chir; 1987; 112(5):285-93. PubMed ID: 3591046.
    Abstract:
    Reported in this paper are postoperative results recorded from 120 patients, 3 years after selective proximal vagotomy for uncomplicated duodenal ulcer. There was no intraoperative lethality and no recurrence in 96.7 per cent of all cases, while Visick grades I on II were recorded from 98.2 per cent. Radiologically and gastroscopically detected pathological processes receded soon. Average postoperative reduction in acid secretion was 66.2 per cent in BAO and 46.8 per cent in MAO. Acid values re-increased thereafter, and three years later reduction rates still amounted to 43.7 per cent in BAO and 28.6 per cent in MAO. Indications for proximal gastric vagotomy are discussed in some detail.
