  • Title: [Cimetidine with suture ligature of ulcers - an alternative in the treatment of severe acute gastroduodenal ulcer hemorrhage].
    Author: Düsel W, Lehmann L, Rietbrock I, Seez P.
    Journal: Chirurg; 1982 Oct; 53(10):633-7. PubMed ID: 7151508.
    Abstract:
    The results of SPV with suture ligation of the ulcer (n = 60), suture ligation combined with postoperative Cimetidine medication (n = 20) and suture ligation alone (n = 20) for severely bleeding gastroduodenal ulcers were studied retrospectively and compared. No significant difference could be found between suture ligations of the ulcer combined with SPV or Cimetidine concerning recurrent bleeding and specific or overall mortality. Their rate were highest after suture ligation alone as well in bleeding duodenal ulcers as in gastric ulcers.
