[Characteristics of acid-producing function of the stomach after transgastric selective proximal vagotomy].

An analysis of results of transgastric selective proximal vagotomy in 90 patients with ulcer disease of the duodenum enabled the authors to conclude that seromyotomy of the lesser curvature of the stomach when performing transgastric selective proximal vagotomy fails to ensure valuable parasympathetic denervation of the zone in question which results in a number of cases in preservation of uninterrupted gastric acid formation of high intensity and in the development of recurrent ulcer.
