Title: Direct anastomotic visualization in stapled Billroth II gastrectomy. Author: el Ferzli G, Worth MH. Journal: Surg Gynecol Obstet; 1986 Nov; 163(5):487-8. PubMed ID: 3775626.

The classic sequence of dissection is modified, but it should not alter the results.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
