[Functional results of gastrectomy].

An estimation of functional results of gastrectomy for gastric cancer in 183 patients has been made. Radical operations with the formation of Y-shaped inter-intestinal anastomosis and an artificial food reservoir in the area of the small intestine portion anastomosed with the esophagus were performed in 102 patients. Macroscopic signs of reflux-esophagitis were noted in 2 patients (1.96%), dumping-syndrome in 4 patients (3.9%) and hyperproteinemia in 1 patient (0.98%), i.e. the operations performed gave favourable functional results.
