About gastric resection in postoperative ulcus pepticum

Abstracts. Surgery. On gastric resection in postoperative ulcus pepticum. Prof. F. de Gironcoli (Zentrbl. F. Chir. 1930, No. 1) proposes a modification of the radical resection of the stomach in ulcus pepticum, which consists in the fact that the site of the anastomosis is not removed together with the adjacent loops of the small intestines, but a section of the intestines remains immediately below the anastomosis with two knees: leading and abducting. After removing part of the stomach, the anastomosis and the initial part of the duodenum, the left part of the stomach is sutured directly with the intestinal lumen with two knees. Thus, ulcus pepticum remains in the removed part, and the newly formed stomach is obtained by the Billroth II resection type, with the only difference that the method proposed by the author is technically simpler and less time-consuming.
