  • Title: [Dumping syndrome after selective vagotomy and pyloroplasty].
    Author: Miksić K, Novak B, Sfiligoj R, Steinbach M.
    Journal: Acta Chir Iugosl; 1977; 24(1 Suppl):315-6. PubMed ID: 857538.
    Abstract:
    We have analysed the late complications (3--6 years after the operation) in 48 patients we treated by selective vagotomy and pyloroplasty because of duodenal ulcer. Authors have encountered six patients with so severe postoperative dumping syndrome that revison surgery has been performed. By reoperation there was no evidence of peptic disease but gastroduodenitis. After additional antrectomy dumping symptoms disappeared in all but one patient and radiologically the rate of test meal emptying of the stomach was reduced.
