  • Title: Obstructing duodenal ulcer.
    Author: Hermann RE.
    Journal: Surg Clin North Am; 1976 Dec; 56(6):1403-11. PubMed ID: 996703.
    Abstract:
    The incidence, pathogenesis, symptoms, roentgenographic, and endoscopic findings of patients with gastric outlet obstruction from a chronic duodenal ulcer have been reviewed. In the experience of many surgeons, including myself, vagotomy and an adequate drainage procedure (Finney pyloroplasty, gastrojejunostomy, or gastroduodenostomy) provide excellent decompression of the obstructed stomach. as well as excellent control of the ulcer disease in most patients. Postvagotomy gastric atony has not been a problem.
