    Journal: Vestn Khir Im I I Grek; 1998; 157(3):23-5. PubMed ID: 9751963.
    Abstract:
    The authors made an analysis of the immediate and long-term results of truncal vagotomy for perforating gastroduodenal ulcers in accordance with the kind of the suture in operation of stomach drainage. In 282 patients pyloroplasty was performed with placing a two-row suture, in 239 patients a one-row suture was used. Lethality among the patients with the two-row sutures was 2.1% in those with the one-row suture--0.4%. The placing of one-row sutures was followed by a relatively smaller amount of complications at the early postoperative period. An analysis of long-term results has shown that the one-row suture gives much greater amount of excellent results as compared with the two-row suture. The authors recommend to use the one-row suture in all the cases of perforating pyloroduodenal ulcers irrespective of the phase of intraperitoneal inflammation.
