  • Title: Highly selective vagotomy using tantalum clips.
    Author: Salaman JR.
    Journal: Br J Surg; 1978 Mar; 65(3):155-6. PubMed ID: 638422.
    Abstract:
    A technique is described for performing highly selective vagotomy in cases of duodenal ulcer. Tantalum clips are used instead of conventional ligatures for securing the nerves and blood vessels that pass to the lesser curve of the stomach. With this technique the author has found the operation of highly selective vagotomy quicker and easier to perform.
