  • Title: [Decompression duodenostomy in the prevention and treatment of incompetence of duodenal stump sutures].
    Author: Khvostov IA.
    Journal: Vestn Khir Im I I Grek; 1978 Apr; 120(4):56-9. PubMed ID: 654013.
    Abstract:
    The use of decompressive duodenostomy for the prevention of the incompetence of the duodenal stump sutures of a poorly sutured duodenal stump in stomach resection in 6 cases gave satisfactory results in all the observations. The author is convinced that the decompression of the duodenum by means of the duodenostomy in the incompetence of the duodenal stump sutures decreases significantly the leakage of the intestinal contents between the sutures, which ensures the involution of peritonitis. The patients get rid of an abundant soaking of the bandage, which is very troublesome for them.
