    Abstract:
    Truncal vagotomy and pyloroplasty for perforated duodenal ulcer. A retrospective study of 220 patients operated upon between 1959 and 1982 for perforated duodenal ulcer by truncal vagotomy and pyloroplasty shows that this operation can be performed as safely as suture plication, even in the critically ill patient. The advantages of this procedure as the routine treatment of perforated duodenal ulcer are discussed.
