[Treatment procedure in complicated duodenal diverticula].

The authors share their experience with the treatment of 18 patients. Most of them (10) sought medical aid for complications. The authors consider resection of the stomach to be ineffective for the exclusion of the diverticulum of the duodenum. The operation of choice is thought by them to be an exclusion of the duodenum from the passage of food. Stomach resection after Ridiger is thought to be effective for a combination of the diverticulum and duodenal ulcer. There were no complications or immediate lethal outcomes.
