By radioisotope technique, we studied the emptying function of the vagotomized intrathoracic stomach after esophagectomy for carcinoma of the esophagus in 24 patients, and compared it with the preoperative emptying function. The patients were randomized into a control group (no pyloroplasty) and a study group (pyloroplasty). Gastric emptying was delayed in both groups, postoperatively; however, the delay was greater in the control group than in the study group. Therefore, vagotomy delays the emptying of the thoracic stomach, and this delay is not completely corrected by pyloroplasty.
我们采用放射性同位素技术对24例食管癌患者行食管切除术后胸段胃迷走神经切断后的排空功能进行了研究，并将其与术前排空功能进行了比较。患者被随机分为对照组（未行幽门成形术）和研究组（行幽门成形术）。两组术后胃排空均延迟；然而，对照组的延迟程度大于研究组。因此，迷走神经切断术会延迟胸段胃的排空，且这种延迟不能通过幽门成形术完全纠正。
