    Abstract:
    The treatment of perforated peptic ulcer, according to the experience of the Authors (327 cases), must be very pressing and always surgical. The closure of the perforation, the simplest treatment, seems the most suitable and the least dangerous for the survival of the patient, even though 68% of these patients will have to undergo surgery again in the course of 10 years. The radical treatment of resection, is reserved to few and carefully chosen cases, because it is loaded with sufficient risk. Acute bleeding peptic ulcer (86 cases) requires the operation: immediate or delayed according to the importance of the hemorrage: very serious, serious, moderate.
