  • Title: [Gastrocolic excision for ulcers and cancer. Discussion on ideal surgical procedures (author's transl)].
    Author: Michot F, Hay JM, Flamant Y, Maillard JN.
    Journal: J Chir (Paris); 1980 Apr; 117(4):213-7. PubMed ID: 7430269.
    Abstract:
    Seven patients were treated by gastrocolectomy for either ulcers or cancers. Two patients had ulcerating gastrojejunocolic fistulae, four had cancers of the stomach, and one had cancer fistulae, four had cancers of the stomach, and one had cancer of the transverse colon. Two patients treated by immediate colon anastomosis for cancer, died after the anastomosis broke down, while the three other cases, treated by delayed colon anastomosis, survived. Both patients with ulcerating lesions survived, one after immediate and the other after delayed colon anastomosis. This latter procedure appears, therefore, to be imperative in cancer cases and of value, when used prudently, in ulcer cases.
