  • Title: Gastric secretion and motility in duodenal ulcer: effect of current vagotomies.
    Author: Dozois RR, Kelly KA.
    Journal: Surg Clin North Am; 1976 Dec; 56(6):1267-76. PubMed ID: 999760.
    Abstract:
    Proximal gastric vagotomy, total gastric vagotomy, and truncal vagotomy all decrease gastric secretion of acid and pepsinogen, increase the concentration of gastrin in the serum, impair gastric receptive relaxation and accommodation, and speed gastric emptying of liquids. Only proximal gastric vagotomy preserves antral motility, gastric emptying of solids, and the pyloric barrier to duodenal-gastric reflux.
