    Author: Gervaziev VB, Lubianskiĭ VG.
    Journal: Vestn Khir Im I I Grek; 1981 Jan; 126(1):31-6. PubMed ID: 7222417.
    Abstract:
    The article describes 20 patients with complicated duodenal ulcers and 50 patients with chronic abdominal pain syndrome who had inflammatory-sclerotic alterations of elements of the celiac plexus and the arcuate ligament of the diaphragm accompanied in certain cases by compression stenosis of the celiac trunk. Patients with duodenal ulcers were subjected to desympathization and decompression of the celiac trunk in combination with proximal selective vagotomy and drainage of the stomach in cases of stenosis. The postoperative period was found to be favourable, without disturbed gastric evacuation. Good remote results were observed in 8 patients within one year and in 4 patients within 2 years after the operation.
